"A riveting page-turner! Equal parts Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, and Daniel Boone. This mystery leaves you satisfied and intensely intrigued for the next book. The backdrop of the magic of natural resources intertwined with teenagers evolving ingenuity keeps you guessing and smiling. Mystery in Rocky Mountain National Park is a hike worth taking."

"I read this book with my 2 daughters, ages 9 and 7. We are National park fanatics, and we had a blast reading this book together, especially since we just visited RMNP. We had our park map out and would look up each location mentioned in the book. My 9 year stole the book from me and stayed up late finishing it on her own!"
- Lynn Darrah, High School Special Educator and Mom
"Our 5th-grade daughter started reading the book as soon as we got it. Before I knew it she was already over halfway through. She says that she loves the scavenger hunt and the characters of the book. She has a hard time putting it down to do her chores. I love that she picks to read the book over screen time each day after school."
- Father of Two in Houston, TX
"Loved the book. Adventure, suspense, and educational! Wonderful. Can't wait for the next book in the series!"
- Grandmother to four inquisitive grandchildren in Denver, CO
"This book by far exceeded my expectations. I cannot wait to take my kids on another adventure to a National Park and read this along the way. The adventure was rich, the dialogue was natural, the places that I've been were very accurately described and those I have not been to were easy to imagine. I did not want to put the book down."
- Rockwood Area Elementary 2nd Grade Teacher, Rockwood, PA.
"My two sons and I recently received an advanced reader copy of "Mystery in Rocky Mountains" and couldn't put it down. It was fun being able to visualize some of the locations due to visiting Colorado last summer. My two boys (ages 10 and 9) really enjoy reading mysteries as well as learning about history. If your child enjoys a good laugh, a good mystery, and a book that they can't put down. Can't wait to read book 2!"
- Elijah (age 10), Tucker (age 9), and Ashley K. (parent and homeschool teacher) in Henniker, NH
