review 1: Very cute book. The story starts out with Charlie getting a note. Nit just any note but a "meet me" not from the toughest kid in Middle School. Everyone knows that Ty is major trouble. Charlie should probably have ran in the opposite direction instead of meeting Ty at the designated place and time, but he was intrigued by "why". Charlie heads over, off campus, to meet up with Ty. After a few minutes he realizes Ty is not going to be beating him up right away. He invites him inside a weird looking hotel. Its really not weird, but a Magic themed Hotel called the Abracadabra. Ty has a mystery that he would like Charlie to figure out. Ty has lost one of his resident magicians! He has vanished and he needs the witty, smart kid to help him with his problem. I see bot... moreh boys and girls a like enjoying this fun mystery. The book has great colored illustrations to help bring the story to life and at the end the book includes Discussion questions, writing prompts, and a hand magic trick for you to learn! Neat. ZPD 3.7 and 1.0 AR points.
review 2: Title: Hocus Pocus HotelAuthor: Michael DahlPublisher: Stone Arch BooksAges: 9-12Rating: 5Review: An amazing adventure for middle-graders this book is imaginative, exciting and one of a kind. Michael Dahl weaves an awesome tale of mystery and magic as two boys become an unlikely duo to solve the strange happenings at the Abracadabra Hotel. Ty and Hitch are about as different as two boys can be but they form a united front as they search for the culprits behind disappearances, strange voices, and eerie ghosts. This book was a delightfully, fun read and one that would be great for all middle-graders that love mysteries. less
