I found this to be a very good young adult book. The kids treated each other like siblings do, and also showed intelligence and initiative. The two are talented in their own ways and when they decide to work together make a very good team. They each learned a grudging respect of each other's abilities, strengthening the family bonds. They were fun to get to know and I think I’ll be looking for further adventures of these two. Good writing, fun story, Great Young Adult series. It’s fairly fast paced too, so readers shouldn’t get bored! Recommended! ( )
