I like the shade of purple that the cover has. Like a grape purple. Pretty.

My four year old and I loved reading this together

[Joey Susan · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was one of the oddest Sherlock Holmes ones I’ve read and it was impossible to solve too, I literally had no clue at all what was going on in this one. It was so fascinating.

The case was already open to Holmes but now he needed Watson’s help to solve it, with the evidence being all sporadic little pieces none of which seem to connect they have a tough one but with the family becoming increasingly scared by their dad, Holmes and Watson must figure it out.

I really enjoyed this one due to its oddness,it was a total mystery to me and I’m still not sure I’ve solved it even after reading, it’s such a strange one and I loved reading about this case of the creeping man.

I really love these easy classics as they share a really fun classic story or mystery but cut down into bite size piece that make it so much easier to follow.
