I really liked this book because it is full of wonder and mystery. My favourite character is Melody Bird because she is very good at solving riddles. I would recommend this book to other children because they would be able to solve more riddles.

This is a great book I really loved it but I have only given it 4 stars because it is a bit too scary in parts. I liked asking my mummy some of the riddles and told her she should read the book too because it is awesome.

This is an amazing book about Melody Bird (the narrator) who finds a boy called Hal who is allegedly a spy of M18 pursuing Martin Stone, a criminal. Mathew is my favorite character because he faces his fears throughout the story.
