The Lemonade Crime by Jacqueline Davies

Summary
Evan and Jessie are back to settle some unfinished business from The Lemonade War. The money they earned "disappeared," and Jessie is determined to get it back. She organizes the students in their class into a jury, witnesses, prosecution and defense, hoping the 4th graders will get justice for Evan. But Jessie still has a lot to learn.

Review
Good wrap up to The Lemonade War. The author gives some insight into the "villain" in the story with an honest portrayal of kids, emotions, and choices. Another good option for classroom reading.

3.5 out of 5 stars

Recommended for: fans of the fist book, readers between 8 and 12, classroom discussion 
[AR level 4.5]

Cautions: none
