This book was about a cloth that could heal people, and I think it told the story well. I was shocked when the cloth disappeared.

This is an amazing book! I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good mystery. That is the biggest reason I liked this book because it has mystery. It also has good simple lessons like, "God works everything for good". It has multiple mysteries to keep me thinking. I like to try ad figure out the mysteries as I go so that is fun too. Plus, it carries some of the problems/mysteries to the next book. I Loved this! It is one of my favorite books of all time ( and that's saying a lot!)

Young Whit is a really great Christian middle grade series. I have been really enjoying these mystery books based on the character John Avery Whittaker from Adventures In Odyssey. I love seeing Whit as a young kid who loves to solve Mysteries and works on scientific experience. If you're an Odyssey nut like me, you'll also notice some references to the show throughout the books. Definitely a must read.

I hadn't read book one, but my son said he knew the story. A little intense for a 5 grader, but not terrible. Also, the end was a nice tie-in to the Adventures In Odyssey radio adventures.

AH! This book was definitely the best one out of the whole series. The end though, it will surprise you. Like, wow. 🤯

My kids loved this book, and even the Hubs got sucked in. Great little series, especially if you know and love Mr. Whitaker from Adventures in Odyssey. This one definitely left us hanging, and we're all wondering how they're going to work out this whole healing cloth storyline...
