My son loves this collection
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This is a great book. My son is 6 and loves reading this book and feeling like a detective and he even dresses up and goes on hunts for clues like he is Nate the Great. It is also full of basic sight words, to get kids into reading chapter books. The words are easy, but the pages are longer so kids feel that they are reading harder material.

I purchased this book as a gift for my 7 year old grandson. He loves to read ALL Nate the Great books. These books help him to relate to feelings he might experience in his own life.
Great Beginning Chapter Book

This is a great book, full of basic sight words, to get kids into reading chapter books. The words are easy, but the pages are longer so kids feel that they are reading harder material. It builds stamina and success. The story is cute too.
I think this is the best Nate the Great adventure.

Rosamond's present slid off of her sled. Nate the Great walked to her house and noticed that there were 6 cartons of milk on the table. Rosamond had only 4 cats and each cat drank a single bottle of milk. What could the other 2 bottles be for? Nate followed the tracks from Rosamond's sled in the snow. This led him to a tree by the tracks. He looked up into the tree and found his present, a cat named Super-Duper Hex. You will enjoy this book if you like Nate the Great. I liked it because it was a tricky mystery to solve.
