SargeSarge by Stuart Ledwith
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sarge is a Fantasy Adventure that tells the story of Lieutenant Commander TJ Madison, AKA Sarge, who we were first introduced to in Mission 3047. This book gives his backstory and tells about his upbringing, how he first met his wife and how he came to work for a top secret agency. Sarge had a challenging upbringing and worked hard to put food on the table at an early age. When he was given an opportunity to have a better life he took it and through hard work, perseverance, and determination he became a highly decorated Navy Seal. Sarge met the love of his life when he rescued her but lost her when she passed away. The story is full of love, loss, drama, action, suspense, UFO’s, aliens, and top secret missions. The author has a unique writing style and I loved how entertaining and intriguing his stories are. I highly recommend this book!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lucas’ family knows that he is not like other cats. Every night he leaves and does not come home until morning. His family has their own ideas as to what he is up and suspect that he is solving mysteries in the forest with other animals. Curious as to what Lucas does all night his family puts a camera on his collar to see if they can solve the mystery of where he goes and what he does every night. Does Lucas have a secret identity as a spy cat who solves mysteries?

I absolutely adored this book and found it a fun read. It is beautifully illustrated with animals having adventures and solving mysteries together. The end of the book contains fun activities that encourage learning while doing so in a creative and imaginative way. A must read for children of all ages!
