Wonderful preteen mystery.
The Buccaneers of St. Frederick Island, is a brightly written mystery for pre-teen children written by Linda Maria Frank. The adventure begins from the first page and continues to the last with the mystery being solved. The author gave great description of a child’s and adult perspectives in the matter at hand. The Native American history intertwined into the story makes it even more interesting and difference in today’s world. I would recommend this author, this book as well as her many others for children and families to enjoy. Ms Frank’s writing style brought me back to my childhood with Nancy Drew.

Swashbuckling adventure!
Such a fun adventure to read for kiddos, and even for those who are kids only at heart. I wish I had been that adventurous as a kid. Fast paced and fun read. Set in a cozy, tight knit island community, this book will make you smile for sure.

An interesting read.
The Buccaneers of St. Frederick Island by Linda Maria Frank was a really good read. I wasn't sure what to expect reading this book, and it was a very pleasant and easy read. This was definitely a book for all ages. It was an interesting little adventure, children's mystery book to read. This was also a very quick read, which I enjoyed. I really enjoyed the little back story at the beginning, of the authors childhood. It was very interesting to me. This wasn't my favorite book I've read, but it was really good nonetheless. I would definitely read more from this author in the future.

This book was a quick and entertaining read. There are a lot of fun witty moments in this story. These kids all want to be detectives and they are determined to find out who stole the money they worked hard to raise so they could donate to charity. Their club house burns down which is a small set back for them but they are very tenacious kids. They do get some help from a few adults on the island as well. Even though this is a quick read it is rich in detail. This book took me on a sweet adventure with mystery that is good for all ages. I recommend this book.

This story is set on St. Frederick’s Island in the late 1940’s. When a group of eighth graders find the money they raised for toys for homeless kids is stolen, they are understandably upset. The group bands together, calling themselves the Buccaneers, and set out to find who stole it. Each member of the group is sworn to secrecy and given a code name. As they inch closer, they receive a threatening letter and their clubhouse gets burned down. This was truly a great read with mystery and even some laughs and my son and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it together.
