REVIEWED BY: Wayne Walker
The first book in the JGDS series, State of Wilderness, was awarded
a five star review by Stories for
Children Magazine saying...
"People like me who enjoy geography and trivia buffs in general
will really like this book. However, it should especially appeal to
middle school aged students whose lives revolve around video games.
Take a break from the computer or pod for a few minutes and read a
book that will be both fun and educational. It is well written and
the drawings by Aidana WillowRaven help the reader visualize what
the "Junior Geography Detective Squad" is seeing. When I received
my copy and began to look over it, I found it so interesting that I
finished it in one sitting. I guessed the state by Clue #4, but if
you cannot guess it by Clue #25, you need to brush up on your U. S.
geography! And if you want to know what those clues are, you will
need to get the book. I look forward to further volumes in the
series." (read

With any luck, book two, State of Quarries will earn just as high
remarks! State of Wilderness is available everywhere but if you
want an signed copy you will need to go though the publisher's link
below and request one that way.
