Hooray for great artwork and story !,
By Georgie Cavitt "an avid book reader" (Evans City, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Emily Upham's Revenge: A Massachusetts Adventure (Paperback)
This book is a really pleasant surprise and states on the back that this book is for ages 11 and up, although I think younger children could read this as well. The illustrations - black & White drawings - really are wonderful and help to bring this story alive. My book is marked "Special Edition", so I don't know if this edition is the only one with the great drawings!

A great book with many well written enexpected events,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Emily Upham's Revenge: A Massachusetts Adventure (Paperback)
A book with great suspense and good cliffhangers.Excellent use of diologue and terrific description of characters. One of the best books I've read for a while. "Emily Upham's Revenge" keeps you on the edge of your seat and I couldn't put it down.Emily Upham is sent to live with her uncle but her uncle never gets the letter annoucing her arrivle. Instead,Emily meets meets Seth Marple. Emily Upham and Seth Marple rob Emily's rich uncle to get the train fare to get to back to Emily's home in Boston. Many surprising twists with an excellent surprise ending. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

Emily Upham's Revenge: A Massachusetts Adventure,
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Emily Upham's Revenge: A Massachusetts Adventure (Paperback)
HI READERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Our teacher read this book to us. We couldn't stand for it to end. Once, when she stopped our class was chanting "READ IT, READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" we chanted so loud you could hear us down the hall. In it a sly and cunning boy (a bit like someone we know) meets a very religious, spoiled, and proper young lady by the name of Emily Ophelia Upham. It truly leaves cliffhangers. Students of Melrose Elementry P.S.Don't tell a lie dear children P.S.S. This raiting is dedicated to the children at Melrose Elementry School Jamestown, RI
