[bekstrom_2 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book is a good example of realistic fiction. This story could easily take place in a school with students just like the ones who are reading the book. Students are able to imagine themselves in a specific situation without having to live it. The plot of the book is engagin, and relates to the studnets lives. It is applicable and different elements of the plot are doen seamlessly. It is easy to see how in the end our conflict is resolved, and in the meantime students reading this book are engaged in solving the code for themselves. I would use this book in an intermediate classroom. The type of media used is pencil.
