"Mystery at Miss Abigail's" by Lois Gladys Leppard

About this book:

  “Mandie Shaw loves to visit her new friend, Faith, at Miss Abigail's big house. There they can play with each other and admire all the beautiful things. One thing the girls can't touch is the china cabinet in the front hall. It's full of precious china that only Miss Abigail is allowed to handle.

   But when a beloved teapot turns up missing, does it mean a thief has broken into Miss Abigail's house? Will Miss Abigail have to tell the people of Charley Gap that they should all lock their doors? Mandie's determined to find the answer -- and the missing teapot -- in time for Miss Abigail's big Christmas party.”

 

 

Series: Book #3 in “Young Mandie Mysteries” series. (Book #1’s review Here! and #2 Here!) {This series is connected to the original Mandie series, Mandie is younger in this series but this series was written later. Also is a bit confusing for those who have read the Mandie series first. See my review of Book 1 for my thoughts on this.}

Spiritual Content- A Scripture is quoted; A few mentions of prayers & praying; A couple Prayers; A mention of a blessing.

 

 

Negative Content- Minor cussing including: a ‘shucks’; Mentions of a fire, deaths, & burn injuries (Mandie mentions that it would be terrible to be scarred for life); A couple mentions of gossip.

 

 

Sexual Content- A few mentions of a sister sneaking off to go meet a boy.

My personal Rating-

{The ratings are lower as the girl gets older because of the simple plot-line, but is clean nevertheless}

While this “Young Mandie Mystery” series is confusing for those who have read the “Mandie” books, it still has the cute charm that the main series has.

 

 

See y’all on Friday with a new review!
