Listen to the following excerpt from the novel A Red Herring Without Mustard by Alan Bradley. The main character in the novel is Flavia de Luce, an inquisitive and intelligent 11 year old girl. Alan Bradley's previous book also had Flavia de Luce as a main character. What was the name of that book?
After listening to the first chapter of the book do you think you would want to read the book - why or why not? What picture became most vivid in your mind as you listened to the story?

The name of the previous book was "The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie". I think we should read this book because it sounds different, and exciting. Though, I think it would make more sense if they knew what Flavia de Luce found in the cuccumber patch.
The previous book that had Flavia de Luce was titled, "The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie" and I remember Mattew G., now a grade 7, reading it and telling me that it was an awsome book.
I think we should read this book because it could be another class activity like how we took clues from "The Westing Game" and "When You Reach Me" to try to solve the mystery.
The other book that Flavia de Luce was in is called "The Sweetness at the Bottum of the Pie" I read this book and thought it was one of the best books i have read (not as good as "To Kill a Mockingbird"). I agree with Mary how she said if you knew what Flavia found in the cuccumber patch.
