The Great Bike Rescue
By: Hazel Hutchins
Have you ever had your bike stolen? In this amazing book we hear the story of Levi and Riley’s adventure to find their stolen bikes.
A young boy who goes by the name of Levi enjoys spending long afternoons riding his bike with his best friend Riley. But one day while paying a visit to the corner store his bike goes missing and Levi does not know who to blame. Levi plans to do an investigation on his missing bike and finds out that many other bikes in the neighbourhood have been stolen. When Levis dad hears about the stolen bike he gives him some tips but not enough to solve the mystery. The next day Riley’s bike is stolen and now Levi and Riley team up to find the bikes. While the investigation is happening Levi and Riley spot Emily Grimshaw, one of Levis greatest childhood enemies. Riley doesn’t think that Emily’s a suspect but Levi has a strong feeling that she might be the bike thief. Is Emily the thief or are Levis bad childhood memories coming back to him. Later during the investigation Levi and Riley come across a second hand bike shop. When they ask the owners about the stolen bikes they deny that they’re the bike thieves. Another one of the possible suspects is the school bully also known as Steve Morrrow. The final suspect is a tattooed guy who was spotted near the scene of the crime. Are any of the suspects the bike thief or are Levis assumptions incorrect.
My favourite part of the book was when Levi and Riley found the bike thief and the mystery was put to an end. I liked that part of the book because all my thoughts of who the bike thief was were resolved. I would give this book 5 stars out of 5 because it was very mysterious and that’s the kind of genre of book that I like.
