Oooh, this was a delightful story! It's written for students from about 5th-9th grades, and any mystery or Sherlock Holmes lover will enjoy this story. Sherlock Holme's mother has gone missing and his 14 year old sister, Enola is left alone and confused. Enter Sherlock and brother Mycroft. Neither one of them are able to make headway on the case and they decide to send Enola off to a proper girls finishing school. This is not what Enola has in mind, so she runs away. On her way she gets involved in another local mystery and the fun begins! This is the first of many Enola Holmes mysteries and once you get through this one, you will surely want to read another. I loved this story and along the way you learn about 19th century London and the Victorian age as well as customs, dress, and speech. This is a great mystery for beginning mystery lovers!
