Archer Benjamin’s grandparents are coming home, and Archer is thrilled! Unfortunately, Archer’s grandparents are going to get kicked out of the exploration society, period.

So, with friends and a little bit of botany, he begins the hard search for proof of Birtwhistle’s guilt.
I loved this book because it kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time, waiting for the next plot twist. I also loved this book because no matter how many times you re-read it, it will still have the same plot twists, the same surprises, and will never lose it’s glamour.
I would recommend this book to people who like adventure, and to 10 year olds and up. I would give this book a 10 out of 10 star rating.
