Review: B-; Should be reclassified as suitable for Young Adult readers.
Rating: 3 out of 5

This review could stand for the three books in the series:Had they been labeled as 'juveniles', I might have given them a four star rating. But everything's a little to Horatio Alger, a bit too conversationally trite (Gee! and similar expressions), a bit too politically message conscious. Everything just seems to work out a little too well.That said, it will appeal to some. It's well written for the most part, excepting only the earlier comments regarding trite speech.Classify it as 'YA' and I recommend the book. As an adult novel, it will still appeal to some but it left me wanting a slightly different approach.
