Swindle
a mystery by Gordan Korman
published in 2008
Review written by The Ummm King, Tommy Bubbles, and Jack N. Jill
Two sixth graders, Griffin and Ben, found a baseball card in the old Rockford house and sold it for $150. But the owner tricked them and now they have to get it back. One of the readers loved it so much he read all the rest of the books in the series, one said it was okay, and two didn't really like it (one thought it was a little difficult for him).
