You have to love Cam Jansen. When you're a kid, you read all of these stories about magic powers, mystery, and adventure. But everyone tells you magic can't exist. Cam Jansen manages to solve every case without the use of magic... she's a real girl. That's what makes her special and what makes you want to read more and more. She lives her life and has friends just like everyone else. Cam Jansen is a real kid superhero, and the thought that a person like her could actually exist... makes her the best kid detective ever! Kids can really associate themselves with Cam and her friends. Our family loves Cam Jansen!

i would buy any cam jansen book even if it cost 100 dollars. and this book was very interesting

I remember reading one of the Cam Jansen books when I was younger but I cannot put my finger on it. More than likely it was this one but again my memory won't place it. Anyway it is a basic and short read that will be great as a step-up book. There are a few words that may end up causing problems but with the dinosaur names at least there is a pronunciation guide for those who don't know them. Otherwise word-wise there shouldn't be much other problems. There isn't much of a plot or background to the story. Basically point A, point B and point C then The End. Since of the hurried plot you don't get much mystery to work with or even truly much of a motive. What really irritated me with this book was the characters. Cam is the annoying know-it-all that seems to bounce around. She has this amazing photographic memory and gets in trouble but not enough trouble that it really stops her from getting down what she needs to. Her best friend is the typical follow-along type who complains and doesn't want to but then still gets dragged in since he chooses to be loyal. Definitely a quick read for many....

MY 9 YEAR OLD COULDN'T GET INTO THE STORY SHE FOUND IT BORING BUT THATS MY FAULT I THOUGHT IT WAS A LITTLE FUNNY AND INTERESTING I GUESS SHE IS A LITTLE BEYOND THIS BOOK I BELIEVE SOMEONE YOUNG WILL LIKE IT

David A. Adler, Cam Jansen and the Mystery of the Dinosaur Bones (Scholastic, 1981)Straightforward early-grade mystery that's about as complex as an Encyclopedia Brown story, but takes up a good deal more space; one wonders at the expansive real estate. Still, mystery novels for kids were not a huge commodity back in the eighties (before the term "chapter books" had come about to describe this category of kidlit), and as with any vertical-market application, authors could get away with more, which is why when someone came out with a really good novel-length kidlit mystery, my whole school went nuts. (If you're old enough, remember how popular The Westing Game was when it appeared, for example?) Still, the plot is fun and the characters are as well, and if you don't mind your mystery elements predictable and simplistic, it's not bad. Just don't expect something as complex and engrossing as the average modern kidlit mystery. ***

I am reading Cam Jansen. Their class goes to a musewm and Cam notices that dinousaur bones are missing. It is a great book. YOU shoud read it. It is addicting because you want to know what the mystery is. Read to find out who stole the bones!By Caleb
