Title of Book: Sammy Keyes and the Art Deception

Author: Wendelin Van Draanen

Why did you choose to read this book?: I chose to read this book because all of the others books looked boring. PLus i am a big fan in Mystery. I read all the other jackets and none of them seemed to catch my eye accept this one and Hotel Thief. I always use to read Cam Janson and i still believe they are better then any other mystery book!

Theme (Main Idea of the Book): The main idea of the book is to show how Diane is a fake and that the mystery was ended by Grams and Sammy.

Setting (Time and Place):The setting takes place at Sammy's school. Sammy is in one of her most boring class she has and is assigned to either go to a art gallery, or go to an art fair. ( i would have chosen the art fair)

Plot (What Happens):Grams, Hudson, and Sammy are headed towards an art gallery were something unspected happened.

Characters: sammy, Grams, Diane, Marrisa, Diane, Casey, Heather, and Margaret are the characters.

Fictional books always have main characters. Describe one main character in this book in detail. How did he/she look? What age was he/she? What was his/her personality like? What was the importance of this character to the story? Did you like this character? Why or Why not? Sammy Keyes, full name Samantha Keyes. Sammy is not your normal 12 year old Detective. She is a 13 year old Detective. She is very weird to me. She is always noticing more than an average human being. She spotted a water gun that was supposedly a real gun. I don't like Sammy. She is to boring to me. Thats why i prefer Cam Janson.

Main Events: Art Convention, Art Gallery.

Problem/Conflict: Some one tried to still art from the art gallery, but sammy got to him by jumping on his back. He ran away with nothing.

How did the story make you feel? The story made me feel like something beautiful and exciting was going to happen, but all there was were dead ends. I wanted to just move on but it tought me that every mystery book is not good.

What new things did you learn from this book?

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? No this book is sooooo boring to me I would only give bad reviews. I hope the next person who reads this book likes it.

Conclusion: I conclude that if anyone is interested in mystery they should read this.
