Guardian- small change for Stuart by Lissa Evans
A small ten year old boy, Stuart horten moves to a historical town named Beeton. Yet he realises he had moved there not my choice; but by fate. As the story unravels stuart finds out about his great uncle Tony horten a magician who mysteriously disappeared. Left with only a letter some coins and a trail of clues stuart and his neighbour try to solve the mystery...
when I first started this book I thought the story line was a little predictable. Yet as the book went on twists increased the ever changing plot and made the story into one I couldn't put down!
The little known about Stuart makes you intrigued about his personality, and throughout the book you feel like you get to know what he Is like, this is better than all being revealed at the beginning as it makes you want to read on! I liked how all the clues fitted together and I think the author had been very clever in choosing these and where in the storyline they were to solve them and it didnt ever get boring.
Great book, an easy read but still a imaginative plot and a magical happy ending!
