Cam Jansen and the Mystery of the Stolen Diamonds (Cam Jansen)
David A. Adler
Puffin, 2004
Cam Jansen and the Mystery of the Stolen Diamonds was great!
I liked the book a lot! Only you can't put it down! I thought it was very exciting and surprising. The best part was when Cam was in the house. I won't say any more because you should read it yourself, because you will like it too.
