Age Range 9-12 Childrens / Middle Grade Fiction Children's Literary Classics Seal of Approval - April 13, 2012 Readers Favorite - Five Stars Reviewed by Rita V for Readers Favorite March 11, 2012 - 5 Stars! Return To Finkleton is a wonderful mystery book for children aged 9-12. KC Hilton does it again in this magical adventure book for pre-teens! There are 28 action packed and fast flowing chapters that include everything from the magical valley, mysterious visitors, new magical items to discover, and ghosts. I loved every minute of reading this book as if I were a child again. I can easily see this series made into a movie series on the big screen and would be disppointed if it doesn't.
