One of my favorite books to read while I was growing up is "Key to the Treasure". It's about three siblings who spend the summer at their grandparent's house. They uncover clues to an old treasure hunt that their great grandfather had made. It was fun to follow along with these realistic characters as they solved various puzzles. My brothers also enjoyed the book along with me, as did my sister when she was old enough to read.
We introduced it to my nieces, who love it too. We still have the original, worn out copy. The picture above is the new cover. I checked on Amazon, and found out that the author wrote a series of books about the same family, and purchased these for the kids. I gave my young nephew a copy of the book too, and my brother was tickled by it, since he remembers reading it over and over.
The author's name is Peggy Parish. So if you are looking for a fun and interesting book for a school aged child, I highly recommend it.
