Something Stinks in Hamlet
Fun and interesting retelling of Hamlet. The idea of a book club where the books swallow you and take you into the book is fun. I loved how the kids worked together and not only solved the mystery but also learned to appreciate each other. This book is a great example of how to get lost in a book in a different way.
