My Review:

       The Mystery of the Missing Iguana is the first in the detective series by Ruchira Khanna. The story is about Alex and his pet Chimp Angelo, who solve the mystery of the missing Iguana. The first thing that caught my attention was the illustrations which are very cute and spot on. As a kid, I used to love such books. Reading one now brought back the sweet memories.

       Ruchira has used a mixture of easy and difficult words. While it is easy for the kids to understand the easy ones, the difficult words will help them learn new words. The story is short which is good because kids don't have patience to sit and listen for lengthy ones. The story is engaging and has many elements like pet, school, friends, playing - the ones kids can identify themselves with and this makes the book even more interesting for them. I am waiting to read this book to my 6 months old niece who is visiting this weekend. I am positive that she is going to love this one.

       Ruchira, I do hope you will write many books in this series. It will definitely be a huge hit.

My Rating: 5/5 Stars!
