Claudia and the Clue in the Photograph by Ann M. Martin, Hodges Soileau

5.0

Finished this really quickly since it’s 117 pages long and there was so much happening that i didn’t really get bored of it.

My thoughts and predictions on what was going to happen were constantly changing but the mystery wasn’t actually very predictable in quite a lot of parts which is amazing considering i am SICK of reading predictable mysteries.

I love how in these books there are SO many likeable characters, I love every single person in the BSC and even a lot of their clients.

NOTES ABOUT WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT:
Claudia had just recently got into Photography and has learnt a lot about it thanks to her teacher, Mr. Geist who Claudia looks up to throughout the entire book. She was learning about how to show a lot about someone just by a single photo of them. So when her friends were coming over for a meeting, she shot a photo of each of them while they were walking through the door to show how they react visiting her. She also notes how she couldn’t take Dawns picture ( another one of her friends and Mary Anne’s stepsister ) because she was visiting her dad and younger brother Jeff in California. Mary Anne talks about how much she and the kids that they babysit miss Dawn and they want to do something to make her miss Stoney brook and maybe decide to come back soon. It takes them quite a while to think of something to do for her, but eventually they think of making sort of a remake of the book “A Day In The Life Of America”
