Swindle, by Gordon Korman


When I was reading Swindle I couldn’t put it down. It is so good because it has a great mix of mystery and action and it is also realistic with a perfect plot. It always makes you want to read more.

Griffin and his friends are at an old scary house that is going to be knocked over in the morning. He is surprised to find a Babe Ruth baseball card that is worth one million dollars, until a mean collector named S. Wendell Polomino (a.k.a Swindle) tricks them out of the card. Now Griffin Bing must put together a team of friends (and one or two enemies) and try to get the card back. There are some things standing in their way: a menacing guard dog, a high-tech security system and a very secret hiding place, but Griffin Bing is ‘’the man with the plan.’’

I love this book and I definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves good realistic stories and fun stories with kids as the main character.
