—Kirkus ___________ Ghosts of the San Juan combines the joy of Southwest river rafting with solving mysteries. What could be more fun? Mogi is the twenty-first-century hero our kids need. Don Willerton is a master at putting together history, adventure, and geography. You learn while enjoying how clever Mogi is. —Tim Stidham ___________ Don Willerton has captured the feel and mystery of a river-rafting adventure. Mogi Franklin knows how to solve age-old questions involving murder, diamonds, Navajo witches, ghosts, and a missing volcano. The author provides a wild ride along the San Juan River canyon of Utah in his suspenseful mystery combined with legends of the Southwest. —Randy Montz ___________ I appreciated how the storyline progresses, tying together two timelines and weaving some real research and historical info through the plot. I think young readers would really get a kick out of this book. As an adult, I found it really engaging and entertaining. —Donna G. Bogan ___________ Ghosts of the San Juan is full of adventure and great characters. As an adult, I appreciate the research and style of the author. As a retired elementary school teacher, I would highly recommend the stories for reading groups or read-aloud. There is mystery, history, and people we want to keep following—and lots of fun. —Lynn Haval ___________ This book is a great read for a lazy afternoon. Get to know Mogi and his sister—a pretty cool pair of southwestern sleuths. Ghosts of the San Juan is an ideal book for parents looking for wholesome entertainment for their youngsters. It’s a fantastic read. —Lisa Kratzer ___________ Ghosts of the San Juan gives readers a taste of adventure and an introduction to beautiful southwestern landscapes, places, and history, all the while letting them know two smart but ordinary kids who use their intellect, creativity, and intuition in extraordinary ways to solve old mysteries with modern-day consequences. —Leslie Linke |
