Searching for Lucky #3002 was an interesting middle grade book about a boy searching for answers about his absent father! The book had twists I did not see coming. The author does a great job introducing some grown up topics in a clear and easy to understand way. The illustrations added much to the reading experience. However, I do not agree that the main character, a 10 young old, should go behind his mother’s back to research all this own his own. Had he insisted to know the truth via his mother, I would have given a higher rating. Overall, a well done book that was entertaining while touching on a harder topic!
