Thirteen year-old Moose and his family still live on Alcatraz, but his father has been promoted from guard to assistant warden, which puts a target on his back with the inmates and also enrages another guard who was passed over for the promotion. Moose's older sister, Natalie, is on break from her special needs school in San Francisco, which means that Moose is put in charge of her, a heavy responsibility that Moose carries on his shoulders twenty-four hours a day. When their apartment is nearly destroyed in a fire, Moose takes on that responsibility too and has to prove whether or not Natalie did it. This is the third in the series of historical Alcatraz, and it's a smart and informative story. The third book in the Tales From Alcatraz series is a little different from the previous two. It is essentially a mystery novel. Moose's father has been promoted to assistant warden, and shortly afterwards, there is a fire in their apartment. The parents are in San Francisco that evening, and Moose just manages to get his autistic sister, Natalie, out of the house safely. Some are convinced that Natalie set the fire, and want to use it to get her off the island, but Moose and his friends, Annie, Jimmy, and Teresa know Natalie would never do that, so they try to solve the mystery of how the fire started. One aspect of the mystery is too easy to figure out, but most of the elements were nice surprises in the end. And for those who are reading all the books in order... it was nice to see Piper finally get what she deserves; Moose to finally recognize Annie as she deserves; and to see Natalie slowly growing and learning how to be around people despite her extreme level of autism. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

I enjoyed this book and would gladly recommend this series to pretty much any middle grade reader. I was expecting a bit more of a wow factor that I didn't get, but I'm not complaining. I hope Ms. Choldenko has lots more books left to write. She's good at it. ( )
