"The 39 Clues: One False Note," by Gordon Korman is the second book in Scholastic's popular book series, "The 39 Clues." Although readers may think that the first one would be better, considering it is by Rick Riordan, author of the acclaimed "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" series, this book is definitely not a disappointment! Gordon Korman did an extremely good job making the characters' personalities the same as they were in the first one and making sure the clues are just as hard to figure out!Show Less

great books for tweens
My son and I have been reading the 39 clues series and thoroughly enjoyed volume 2. We have already pre-ordered #3 and have completed the online challenges as well. I highly recommend these books for anyone with kids in the "tweener" stage. Because the main characters are a brother-sister team ranging in age from 11-14, I think it would be appealing for both boys and girls and catch the attention of a sometimes difficult age group.

Interesting Twist
The False Note is the second 39 clues book; by Gordon Kormon, it is a fictional novel. I loved this book because it always had you on your toes. You think one thing will happen, but the total opposite will happen. The story started in Germany, then went to Venice in the modern time setting.
Dan, main character, his sister Amy, and their au pair, Natalie have to get the second clue to win the contest before the rest of the family finds it and figures it out. Dan almost dies because Dan and Amy got two pages from Mozart's sister's diary, from the Janus part of the family. Dan has to think fast because everything is happening and it goes very quickly. Dan also had to be careful so none of his family would find him and try to kill him. They would like to kill him because the family thinks that Grace (grandmother who started this whole thing) gave them a clue to help them win the contest.
The author uses humor in his writing and he also uses writing that kids would say now. The age period that should read The False Note is 9-13 and older if they want. If enjoy being surprised almost every chapter and never know what is going to happen next. You will love the The False Note.7 out of 9 people found this review helpful.

Great series for tweens/teens to get them interested in reading!
My son, who has not been very interested in reading, is now reading for pleasure! He really got into these books and has read every one in the series. We rush to B & N everytime there is a new release in the series. These books can also be used for A/R testing purposes. Its nice to find a series of books that kids like that can also be educational and creative! I recommend these to parents looking to spark an interest in reading!

Reviewed by Jennifer Rummel for TeensReadToo.com
Amy and Dan barely escaped with their lives in the French catacombs. Now, they're on their way to learn more about Mozart.
They're not alone in tracking down the 39 clues, but is someone tracking their movements?
From the train ride out of France to the escape from Venice, Amy and Dan face danger again and again. They're not above stealing clues from other Cahills, breaking into hotel rooms, distracting store clerks in order to search their store, and entering the Janus branch's secret underground hideout.
The trail for Mozart leads them through Germany, Austria, and Italy - and all countries lead them into danger. They're determined to play; after all, their life depends on finding the clues first.
A great second riveting adventure in THE 39 CLUES series will leave readers anxious for Amy and Dan while rooting for them all the way.3 out of 6 people found this review helpful.

fun book
My daughter and I are reading the series together. I am having a hard time keeping up with her. They are fun adventures with a fun web site the whole familly tries to play the games. I will be sad when the adventure is over, but a movie is in the works or at least that is the rumor. We bought the first book on itunes and then had to buy it in hard cover for our collection. very fun quick reading.

I Also Recommend:
ONE FALSE NOTE: FRESH!
Rating: 63%
Although it may contain a little less action and adventure than its predecessor, One False Note is still not a disappointment, even though it may be directed towards younger readers.2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

B to the O to the BORING!!! I gave it a dumb star because you have to do it in order to post!!! I honestly think this book doesn't even deserve to get even half a star!!! If you agree with me make your headline two dollar signs.
