The Mystery of the Cupboard

Some my raise the PC issues around Native Americans, these stories (a series of texts) don't belittle the Native characters and the assumed superior views held by the Cowboys in these tales are called into question in the texts. My grandson and granddaughters enjoy reading these a lot. cl

This series of books are classics for elementary students. I read them to both my 5th graders and then 3rd graders and both ages loved them, hung onto every word, were totally caught up in the magic of the cupboard. I have now started my 10 year old grandson on them and the first book has him hooked. I purchased this particular book to get him the complete series.

The entire Indian in the cupboard series is fantastic.. get your kids excited about reading with this great book about Omri and his magical cupboard.. you won’t want to put it down!! Plus the price is super fair!

I loved reading this when I was a kid, now I can read it to my 5 year old.

My nephews love this series. This is just one more book that offers them hours of reading enjoyment. Be sure to start with the first book, "The Indian in the Cupboard". That will get them hooked on reading (whether you read it to them or let them read it by themselves).

My daughter is a big fan of the Indian books

My kids read this, now my grandson reading it :) I remember reading it too! Highly recommend. Don't like how this site MAKES you write a review and has to be certain # of words.

I got this book for my son and he absolutely loves it. The way the story is written it really makes the characters come alive.

The further adventures of Omri and the magical cupboard that brings his plastic figures to life. In this book Omri has moved house to the country, the magical cupboard is safely in the bank, the roof of the new house is thatched and while it is being repaired a diary is found along with an old money box in the old thatch that Omri manages to hide away for himself. Within the money box Omri finds four plastic figures come to life, does this mean the previous owner also had a magic key like Omri, a nice story for adults and children alike.

Fantastic read

The plotting grows better through the series. Another sub plot develops here, bringing Omri the realisation of the dangers the key opens his world and family to. An absorbing read for all ages. Thought provoking too.

Bought for my grandson he is really into this he has seen the film but not read the book yet as keeping it for his birthday

Indian in the cupboard books are one of the few books my son reads and he thoroughly enjoys them all
