My Review Of Frankie Dupont And The Lemon Festival Fiasco

 

About the Book

Title: Frankie Dupont and The Lemon Festival Fiasco | Author: Julie Anne Grasso | Illustrator: Alexander Avellino | Publication Date: March 29, 2015 | Publisher: Independent | Pages: 100 | Recommended Ages: 8 to 12 Summary: Hot off cracking his first official case, Frankie Dupont is on the scene when his new teacher takes ill. The pint-sized detective suspects a classic case of sour grapes, but the evidence leads him to the one place he wouldn’t mind avoiding for the rest of his natural life. Enderby Manor has a few more secrets up her sleeve, and as Frankie begins to unravel them, he uncovers a plot stinkier than a sardine sandwich. In Book 2 of the Frankie Dupont Mysteries, Frankie will make some new friends, upset some old ones, and of course, there will be lemon meringue pie.

 My Review: Frankie is such a fun character. Sometimes he makes me laugh. Frankie is a detective who loves to solve mysteries. Did Miss Chestnut really poison Mr. Mulberry? If she didn't, than who did? Frankie goes through his list of suspects. Looks for clues. Finally he solves the mystery.
