About this listen

What would happen if you discovered that your family was one of the most powerful in human history? What if you were told that the source of the family's power was hidden around the world, in the form of 39 Clues? What if you were given a choice - take a million dollars and walk away...or get the first Clue? If you're Amy and Dan Cahill, you take the Clue - and begin a very dangerous race.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

I came across this book whilst looking for something new for my 7yo to listen to. Naturally I listened to it before he did & found it very entertaining.

The book is clearly written for a younger audience & there are parts that are quite obvious (to someone who has had more than a few 21st birthdays). That said, it doesn't stop you from enjoying the story & my 7yo is now half way through & giving the thumbs up.

Not just for the little people in the house

My son (12 years): "wow, it is so good I don't want to get out of the car, I want to know what happens next". My daughter (14 years) "I can't wait for the journey back home (9 hours) so that we can continue with the clues". My husband "At last a book we can listen to in the car that is funny, easy to listen to and easy to follow!".

Just Brilliant! Riordan inspires children again
