From a father
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I bought this book on a lark for my 9 year old daughter. She burned through it in 3 nights( a big deal for a 9yearold) and she loved it. Besides an engaing story I found my daughter had learned many internet concepts as well as emoticons. The :) and ;) symbols you see all over emails. She just shot through book 2 and asks everyday for book 3(which is currently outta stocK) :(

:-(( ¬:-D:-Vi-) is the coded message that ZMASTER sends to Tamsyn, after sending TAMSYN, GET HELP.Tamsyn and Josh - with the help of Lauren, Mitch and Tom - do decode the message in time (they only have about 5 hours) and rescue Rob Zanelli. Well, Tamsyn and Josh rescue Rob because only those three live in Portsmouth. The other three live in Toronto, New York and Perth. This is the story that starts the Internet Detectives. We get to see who they are and how they met. And, the suspense is great ... the story moves ...But one little problem! How did Rob type the famous coded message :-(( ¬:-D:-Vi-) in the split second before his nasty tutor entered. You see, on my regular keyboard, to get a ¬ symbol I have to type ALT + 170. And that took me 10 minutes to figure out!. But, then maybe Rob really is a whizz kid. Good book!!
This book is really good
