Best Book by Far

The View from the Cherry Tree is a very good book so far.Though I'm not done reading it yet, it's great so far. I like this book because it may be hard to follow but it has a ton of mysteries. You can learn a lot of lessons just by the time your in the middle of the book.this book is cool even though their is a mean neighbor. Read the book to find out what she dose.


The View From the Cherry Tree review

This book starts out right in the action, with Rob Mallory witnessing his neighbor, Mrs. Calloway, being pushed out her window. However, because everyone is so busy with his sister's wedding, no one listens to Rob when he says Mrs. Calloway's death was not an accident. When three gunshots nearly miss him, a flowerpot almost falls on his head, and his food gets poisoned, Rob thinks someone is trying to kill him. When Rob investigates Mrs. Calloway's house, he finds three spent bullet shells on her balcony...

I enjoyed reading this book because it was easy to understand, suspenseful, and an interesting mystery.

slow but good

This book is about a boy named Rob who has this mean and mysterious neighbor who he likes to watch from a cherry tree in his backyard. Rob's sister Darcy is getting married this weekend and everything is chaotic. Then one day when Rob is watching his neighbor and his cat S.O.B runs towards his neighbor's window and she sees him and tries to attack the cat. Then all of the sudden a pair of big hands pushed her out the window. Then everything turns into a great and suspenseful mystery.
I liked this book. It has a good mystery and a good plot. The only problem is it's slow to get to the point, but once you get there you cant put it down. Someone who is a fast reader would love this book. A slow reader would kind of like it. I say that this book is for kids nine to thirteen.

The perfect spot to witness a crime

Life around the Mallory home is hectic with the upcoming wedding of Rob's sister, Darci. So hectic that no one pays much attention to Rob - except when he gets in trouble. So, while sitting in the cherry tree he hears mean old Mrs. Calloway arguing with someone right before she gets pushed out the window, the strap on the binoculars around her neck catching on a tree branch, hanging her right in front of him. The problem is that no one belives him when he tells them she was murdered. No one, except the murderer.

A favorite from my childhood, my 10 year old son and I recently read this and we both loved it. The mystery is tense and enough to keep even reluctant readers interested and reading right to the end.

Jason's Review

I liked this book because it was exciting. I also didn't know what was going to happen next. Willow Davis Roberts is my favorite Adventure/Thriller writer.
This book is about a boy named Rob who likes to hang out in a cherry tree in his yard. One day while sitting in the tree he thinks he saw his neighbor Mrs. Calloway get pushed out of her window. So he tries to tell someone but his parents are too busy with his sister's wedding to listen to him and when he calls the police they think he is just some kid making a prank call. So Rob has to try and survive this weekend until his sister's wedding is over to tell anyone. But will the murderer get to him first?
I would recommend this book to someone who likes action and thriller books because this book is very exciting and I enjoyed it.
