Books with title The Amish Farm Mystery

In the fall of 1967, fifteen-year-old Abby owes her older brother Jeff a favor. He asks her to babysit for his Amish friend’s children. She thinks that she will be bored to death. Abby recruits her best friend, Linda, and they learn about Amish culture and find out that the Amish way of life is far from boring. The October days are dark, cold, and wet. First, Abby notices the farmhand acting strange; then, when dusk sets in, a stranger comes to the front door, and he won’t leave. There is no phone, so Abby needs to go for help. As usual, Abby is hoping that her premonitions can help her before someone is hurt—or even worse.

In this book - your child will help Alphie solve the mystery by following clues that his sister, Zoey, left him throughout the farm. It is an interactive book that will engage your child in the story making reading fun. Amazingly this book keeps my son's attention as effectively as a computer game. He enjoys going on the adventure and solving the mystery over and over (even though he already knows the answer). Fortunately for me - the book does not require batteries, nor does it make any beeping noises. This is the first of a series of books that follow the same concept of solving mysteries in various locations. In the works are "The Mystery at the Zoo", "The Mystery at Grandma's House" and "The Mystery at the Park". I hope you and your child enjoy this as much as my son and I have!
