The contrived plot of this book made it hard to really enjoy as an adult reader, but as a teacher, it actually helps. It's really good and i think a lot of people would like it. I kept wondering what could of been in this box and I liked how both characters went through an adventure to find out. This book really grabbed me and I left like I was in the story. I love the way both of them were not so fortunate but worked together so everything would work out. This becomes a huge adverture for the two of them and they learn many lessons along the way. They both look for the keys fast because they want to have them before his 13th birthday.
