Early Elementary Grade Screwball Comedy/Mystery By Pop Bop It's awfully hard to find books in the 8 to 10 year old range that have both decent mystery plots and appealing kids. As to plots, often the solution is that the neighborhood cat sneaked in to the kitchen and knocked over the juice pitcher, so it wasn't a ghost at all. As to the kids, well, it's probably best just to observe that it's a lot harder to write engaging kid narrators than you might think.Which is why this book turned out to be such a surprising treat. First off, we have a truly appealing hero central character. Charlie's just a kid in school. The entire story takes place over one long school day. We meet Charlie, he gives us a little running intro into his school life, and then the plot takes off. But, there is not a single misstep or odd note in the Charlie we get. He's funny and observant and a decent kid. He seems generally to like people, and he isn't loaded with any weird or precocious quirks. He has a deadpan, slightly exasperated view of what's going on around him, and his stoic acceptance of the fact that his day is spinning wildly out of control is mostly funny because it is dry, restrained and understated.And of course that's just right for screwball comedy. NO PLOT SPOILERS HERE, but basically what you get is the story of something that's "stolen" by accident and has to be returned. Each attempt to do so fails spectacularly, and more and more kids get drawn into the action. Ultimately you end up with a Marx Brothers kind of mad farce. I'm not sure I've ever read a book for this age group that so successfully and effortlessly blends complications, action, switcheroos, and split-second timing.And it's all perfectly clear to a young reader what's going on. The jokes are all solid, (and there is some very sly humor and a few pretty sharp throwaway lines). Each twist, (some telegraphed and some surprising), fits the story and makes sense. By the end the characters are breathless and relieved and so is the reader. This is just fun, ripping, smart stuff and it seems to me it would be a real treat for a confident young reader.(Please note that I found this book a while ago while browsing Amazon Kindle freebies. I have no connection at all to either the author or the publisher of this book.)

Great read for kiddos By CESS Charlie and his pals really get themselves in a pickle in the first book in this new series, but their friendship really shines through. The kids remain loyal to each other and try to help each other out while trying to figure out how to undo the accidental mischief they've gotten involved in. Larche really captures thinking like a kid and throws in lots of laughs for good measure.

Larche asked me to review her latest novel, “Charlie Bingham Gets Clocked,” as an ex-elementary and middle school teacher I was tempted; but as I am approaching my 80th birthday I hesitated. I asked her what the target age-range was and she responded about 8 to 10. Well, as Groucho Marx would have put it, “Will somebody run out and get me an 8-year-old!”After some debate, I said yes and read through the novel, an easy task since it is only 105 pages with 18 double-spaced lines per page. The simple and single plot is the disappearance of student Charlie Bingham’s beloved teacher’s alarm clock. The disappearance has something to do with Charlie’s friend Brad’s pet lizard. With the help of the obligatory female lead Alyssa (who of course shows more sense than the juvenile males), one thing leads to another. This domino hitting the next domino structure to the tale is not all that logical, but the whole thing resembles a “Little Rascals” plot and logic has little to do with it.Honestly, I cannot tell how an 8 or 10-year-old would go for all of this. But when I taught that age group many decades ago, I did find that humorous stories went over best. And a good parent or a teacher, having read the book on his/her own, could use it to ask some conscience-raising questions such as “Would a friend do thus and so to another friend?” or “What would you have done in the same situation?”The characters are fairly one-dimensional, and I do believe a reader aged 8 might not mind a little deeper look into the mind of a fictional character of the same age. I do appreciate the author not inserting her point of view into the narration. Indeed, it is all told from Charlie’s point of view in the first person singular.And as a retired English teacher, I think the vocabulary level is just about right. If “randomly” and “snorted” might trip a young reader up, a dictionary should be hard by. In fact, I would like to see Ms. Larche’s future books a bit more challenging as to plot, characterization, and subliminal social messages. But I am ten times older than her target-age audience; so until I write my own Dickensian children’s book, I wish Ms. Larche all the luck in the world with her works.
