  The target of this book are youngsters aged 10-12. The plot and the language is quite simple, but I wonder how many boys/girls are interested in art and pentominoes.
  It is a mystery story that involves two boys and a girl. I understand, It is the third book of a series.
  The story is quite pleasant, but at the end it did not seize my attention at all.
  The only good thing is that I found out about Alexander Calder and its word (the main character is named by his parents after this artist).
  I guess I would recommend this book to really smart youngsters with an interest in math and art.

  Is this helpful?
