Book review " THE MISSING COINS"

I read " THE MISSING COINS".
Pete and Carla are students. They live in an old city in England. Pete likes looking at the beautiful old buildings. Carla likes walking in the little streets. One day, when they were walking along a quiet street, they heard music. They found a man playing a flute. There were only 4 coins in his hat. They thought why he was playing a flute in such the wrong street. There were few people in the street. Then they entered a shop where old coins and stumps were sold. There were a shopkeeper and a girl working in the shop. After Pete and Carla left the shop, the shopkeeper found some coins stolen. He suspected Pete and Carla. But they didn't steal those coins. Carla found the thieves were the man playing a flute and the girl working in the shop. While the shopkeeper were answering the telephone, the girl went to the window with the coins and put them in the man's hat. Finally, they were caught.

I thought the man and woman were clever. And I also thought Carla was clever. If I were in her situation, I had been very angry and had never thought who was the thief calmly. I learned a lot from her(214words).
