Summary: great innovative idea
Review: This was the first of the Choose Your Own Adventure books that I ever read, and I loved it. That was about fifteen years ago. I am currently trying to hunt all of them down and add them to my collection, because I loved them so much growing up.These books are perfect for a younger reader. They are not straight novels. They are not 300-400 pages long. In fact, some adventures can last about 3 or 4 pages! They are not filled with big words, and they are not boring. In fact, they're aimed at pure action and adventure, yet they're not violent at all. There's little plot and character building, which is something that might turn a younger reader off. Plus, as small as each book is, they contain numerous different stories. It is up to the reader to decide how the story ends. It is Nintendo in book form! In this particular book, you are investigating a mysterious house. Who owns the house? What kind of strange things or people will you encounter? If you are looking for material to encourage a child to read for any reason, these books are perfect!
