James Bond has no parents as they were tragically killed in a climbing incident so he’s alone, only with his Aunt to give him company in the holidays. This book shows the reader that whenever you put your mind to something you can do it no matter how hopeless it seems, and you should never give up no matter how bad the case seems. This is an excellent book and I would recommend to all boys throughout the ages of 13-16, it would please all readers who have a feel for excitement and danger and would certainly make them feel good about reading it.
