A-Z Mysteries Vol 1 A-C - Audio Cassette - Unabridged Author:Ron Roy, David Pittu (Narrator) The Absent Author; The Bald Bandit; and The Canary Caper are now available for the fist time on audio. Two cassettes, with playing time of 2 hours, 29 minutes. — Thoughtful Dink, ever-hungry Josh, and loud-voiced Ruth Rose are off for high adventure as they deal with a possible author-kidnapping, a devious bank robber, and a pet-snatching conspir... more »acy. The stories are just right for transitional readers who are not quite ready for the Boxcar Children mysteries. There are clues to follow, a few red herrings, and friendly supporting adults.

There's enough danger here to give children a delightful shiver, but things never really get out of hand. David Pittu reads the books with energy, individualizing each character and bringing the stories to life. This is a delightful way to introduce young readers to a popular series, and would also make a good listening center in primary grade classrooms.
