Review:The Westing Game by, Ellen Raskin
10-15
Warning: Violence. To learn more, click the label dubbed Violence.
A bizarre chain of events begins when sixteen unlikely people gather for the reading of Samuel W. Westing's will. And though no one knows why the eccentric, game-loving millionaire has chosen a virtual stranger - and a possible murderer - to inherit his vast fortune, one things' for sure: Sam Westing may be dead... but that won't stop him from playing one last game!
Readers of my previous blog The Mysterious Benedict Society will love The Westing Game! 200,000,000 dollars are at stake, when Samuel Westing declares he was murdered, and the heirs must discover which one of them killed him. Join Turtle, Angela, Grace, Deere, Theo, Chris, Doug, Hoo, Pulaski, and many others at they race to discover who murdered Westing!
Even though the book tries to focus on all of the characters, it mainly is about Turtle. She's fun-loving and kicks anyone who dares pull her braid!
It might help the most if you read Westing's will. (at the beginning of the book.)
Do you know who did it?
