Reviews for The Treasure Hunt

[jenneth_1 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This is the 3rd book about the Sugar Creek Gang in the North woods. While playing a game of Robinson Crusoe, Bill, Poetry, Dragonfly, and Circus find an envelope with a blank sheet of paper in it. Later, they find out that the blank sheet of paper is really a map written in invisible ink. Could this be a map to the ransome money the kidnapper hid? Could Tom Till's dad be an accomplice working with the kidnapper? If he's not, then why is he and Bob Till up in the North woods?
