The Chocolate Fudge Mystery by David A. AdlerMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
Totally reading this series out of order, but here we go. This is another one of those books that is great for its target audience, but doesn’t really work for those older.
My main issue with this book is the fact that the adults let the kids help with tracking down the bad guys. It could have been a very dangerous situation, but they just went with it. I understand that Cam’s photographic memory was helpful, but it still seemed irresponsible for the adults to include two young children.
The title of the book made me think that chocolate was going to be playing a much larger role than it did. It’s really just there to give a reason for the kids to be walking around the neighborhood. It has nothing to do with the actual mystery.
