The Ambrose Deception
Autor Emily Ecton Ilustrat de Gilbert Forden Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 feb 2018 – vârsta de la 8 până la 12 ani
Melissa
is
a
nobody.
Wilf
is
a
slacker.
Bondi
is
a
show-off.
At
least
that's
what
their
middle
school
teachers
think.
To
everyone's
surprise,
they
are
the
three
students
chosen
to
compete
for
a
ten
thousand-dollar
scholarship,
solving
clues
that
lead
them
to
various
locations
around
Chicago.
At
first
the
three
contestants
work
independently,
but
it
doesn't
take
long
before
each
begins
to
wonder
whether
the
competition
is
a
sham.
It's
only
by
secretly
joining
forces
and
using
their
unique
talents
that
the
trio
is
able
to
uncover
the
truth
behind
the
Ambrose
Deception--a
truth
that
involves
a
lot
more
than
just
a
scholarship.
With
a
narrative
style
as
varied
and
intriguing
as
the
mystery
itself,
this
adventure
involving
clever
clues,
plenty
of
perks,
and
abhorrent
adults
is
pure
wish
fulfillment.

Recenzii
"Readers
of
the
Kingdom
Keepers
are
going
to
eat
this
up!
Ambrose
Deception's
tricky
quest,
a
competition
between
polar
opposites,
thrusts
the
reader
into
a
story
that
satisfies
and
complicates
and
then
twists
at
just
the
right
moment.
Emily
Ecton
delivers
a
readable
maze
of
a
novel
that
middle
grade
readers
will
adore
and
not
stop
talking
about!
These
characters
are
quite
the
accomplishment.
I
want
to
be
their
friend."—Ridley
Pearson,
best-selling
author
of
the
Kingdom
Keepers
series
"Three kids race across Chicago in a competition for a $10,000 scholarship. Who will solve their clues first? The story made me grin, and the clues--truly solvable clues!--had me searching my memory for what I knew of Chicago for answers. (I recommend trying to solve the clues before the characters do.) Then, be prepared for twists. You'll think,'Yeah, what is going on with all the secrecy? Is something up?'Indeed, it is!"—Amy Timberlake, author of One Came Home, a Newbery Honor Book
"Emily Ecton writes stories that feel like good friends--this is a timelessly fun, funny adventure."—Adam Rex, author of The True Meaning of Smekday
