About this book:
“Winter
has arrived in Charley Gap! There's so much snow that Mandie and Joe make a
huge snowman in Mandie's front yard. One night, after her family is asleep,
Mandie hears someone talking outside her bedroom window. No one is there except
the snowman. And he can't talk . . . or can he? The answer is a surprise to
everyone -- including Mandie! -- in this spirited mystery with a heartwarming
solution.”
Series: Book #4 in “Young Mandie
Mysteries” series. (Book #1’s
review Here!, #2
Here!, and #3 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 couple mentions of church service & a preacher; A mention
of God; A mention of praying.
Negative Content- Minor cussing including: a ‘dumb’, and a ‘shucks’; Mandie
sneaks out of the house at night when she hears someone talking (Joe tells her
that that was a dangerous thing and wants to tell her father, but she tells him
not to tattle because it’s her business; they both later sneak out and her
father tells her they should never run off without someone knowing where they
are); Shooting a bear (barely-above-not-detailed); A few mentions of stealing
& a thief; A couple mentions of an outlaw & robbers; A mention of a
fire; A mention of possibly being kidnapped; A mention of hunting.
Sexual Content- N/A.

{The
ratings are lower as the girl gets older because of the simple plot-line, but
is clean for all ages.}
I think I’ve mentioned in every
review of the “Young Mandie Mysteries” series, that I really prefer the original
series (and that this younger version doesn’t connect well at all), but other
than some details being inaccurate from the main series, it’s still a cute
series.
See y’all on Friday with a new
review!
*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this
author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
