This book is about a harmonica which travels across years and over continents and seas to touch the lives of three embattled, music-obsessed children — and, quite possibly, save a life.

Twelve-year-old Friedrich, growing up in Germany during the years of Hitler's rise to power, dreams of being a conductor.
Orphan Mike Flannery dreams of playing the piano in an orchestra, and  Ivy Maria Lopez, the daughter of migrant farm workers likes to play the harmonica.
I would recommend this book for children ages 9 and up.

This book isn't like the rest of the books in the Murder Most Unladylike Series. This book is full of small mysteries that Daisy and Hazel have solved (none of them are murders).

There are also some book recommendations and a few recipes in the book that are worth trying! There is a whole chapter for codebreaking, where you decode morse code and Pig Latin messages.
You also learn how to use to read Caeser shift cipher and transposition cipher.
At the very end of the book there is a quiz about all the Murder Most Unladylike books leading up to Cream Buns and Crime.

Summary of the book –

The Deep End is about Jeff Kinney, Greg Hefley and their family going on a camping trip. Their house was getting renovated and so they were forced to live in their grandma’s basement. They decide to go camping to avoid living in their grandma’s basement and stay hidden from visitors. They find a camper van which is very dirty yet decide to go out to enjoy the summers.

Cat Warriors is series of books which tells the story of cats which live in forest. There are 4 clans, Thunderclan, Riverclan, Shadowclan and Windclan .
The first book starts when Kittypet named Firy decides to go to the "rogue forest cats" and live with them instead of living with his Twolegs(humans).
Here is a summary of a small part from the first book called Into the Wild:
Bluestar's patrol saw an orange kitty who was hunting a mouse on Thunderclan's territory. They decided to see what is he doing. On the second day they decided to contact with him.
When Bluestar and Snowstorm wanted to gracefully walk out of the bushes, the apprentice Clewpaw fell out scaring Firy.
If you read this book please don't mind the different names, I've read most of the books long ago in Russian so my reverse translation might be not the best.
I've already read more than 20 books.These books are very addictive with lots of different story twists.
