More Than Just a Missing Map Mystery! June 27, 1999 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Since I had to add to my library with my own money, I couldn't purchase this whole series after I read them back in sixth grade. I only bought this one, and today at seventeen, I still have it! I used to re-read all of "Missing Map" over and over, but I especially loved Megan--each of her lines, her personality--and of course in sixth grade I was fascinated by her blindness and all the things she was able to do anyway. Megan manages to "see" things other people miss, even without her eyes. This is a great story to acquaint girls 5th--7th grade with the blind and their abilities as well as their limitations. And Megan is more than just a story pawn--she's a real person, just like Kate and everyone else. No girl who reads this book will want to avoid people like Megan; instead, she'll be eager to get to know them, knowing that they're just as important as anybody else.
