Cousins Tim and Robert Wright love antics and are notorious for not following through on chores that need to get done. One day, a message comes through for Tim that at first glance looks like something a friend of theirs might have cooked up. But when Tim’s sister Kimberly informs him that he has won a National poetry contest, the cousins turn their attention to traveling across the country for a trip to Washington D.C. where Tim will perform his poem live. But on the way, their chaperone Aunt Opal gets lost and the cousins must find their way around Washington D.C. with no luggage and no money. Lucky for them, the message they thought was from their friend was real, and Tim and Robert are inspired to set aside their typical natures in order to become the only people who can protect a matter of National security.
This fifth in the Wright Cousins Adventures series takes a step outside of the traditional style of the previous four books. Instead of beginning with introductions to all of the cousins, this story introduces characters far removed from the cousins who ultimately make several appearances within the narrative. Additionally, the book focuses primarily on cousins Tim and Robert instead of the group as a whole. By altering the style in this way, this book connects with readers on a different level and enhances the overall complexity of the storytelling.
Like the others in the series, this book is told primarily through action sequences and witty banter among the cousins. This choice makes the story read quickly, although it ultimately lacks some of the depth and explanation that would help several of the plot points make more sense. However, older middle grade and young adult readers who enjoy action-focused narratives within wholesome settings will appreciate this addition to the series, especially if they have enjoyed the books that came before. This is an engaging addition to the Wright Cousins series, and it serves as an enjoyable launch into subsequent installments.
