Liffey Rivers And The Mystery Of The Winking Judge Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
There is more intrigue in a London art museum than 13-year-old Irish dancer Liffey Rivers could have ever imagined! How will she tell the smug-looking security guard at the National Portrait Gallery that she has discovered there is something WRONG with the Coronation Portrait of Queen Elizabeth I hanging in the Tudor Gallery? And how can she even pretend she is ready to dance next week at an Irish dance competition in County Sligo, Ireland? And WHY is the Judge at the Beltra Feis winking at everyone? Liffey has seen those eyes before....

I am happy to see that the second book about Liffey Rivers maintains the quality of the first story. If anything, I enjoyed the little history/geography lessons that Ms. Briggs sneaks into the books even more this time around, as I was able to get a different picture of London and Ireland from Liffey's point of view.I can see this story appealing to young people through identification with Liffey's emotions and frustrations, her reactions to places and things she encounters on her travels, and, in this particular tale, the delicious description of that special blue dress.Even though the main mystery is solved, a new one pops up at the end of the book, leaving readers anxious for the next installment.
After I read the 1st Liffey Rivers book I had to read the second one. When I got it I finished it the first night which is unusual for me. Liffey Rivers mysteries are getting better and more interesting as each book progreses. In this book Liffey Rivers solves a mystery that starts in London and ends up on the top of a mountain in Ireland with an amazing ending. I can't wait for the next one! I have to know waht happens next! Please!
All three of my children *love* Liffey Rivers. They are precocious readers. My 8 year old daughter is crazy about Irish dance, so it made sense that she would love these books. But my 10 year old, who hates Irish dance, still loved these books. And my 8 year old son also loves them. They are well written mysteries that any kid who likes mysteries would enjoy.
