Review
Does Queen Elsa have a secret admirer? Anna and Elsa sure want to find out if she does in this light mystery addition to the Anna & Elsa series. Filled with characters Frozen fans love, the sisters set out to solve the mystery of the secret admirer. The target audience for this title and the others in the popular series is 6-10 year old boys and girls or strong second grade readers through fourth grade readers. The chapters are average in length and have illustrations to help enhance the story of to give less confident readers a break in the reading. This and the other titles in the series will probably never win the Newbery award. But they are solid and fun reading for their target audience. And the books get kids reading! The theme of working together and the bonds of sisterhood/family are prevalent in this title as it is in the others in the series. This is a must purchase for libraries who have other titles in the series, or wish to start the series, since they can all be read as stand alone books.
