The Case of the Missing Cheese
A Grove Street Mystery
Nine-year-old Skyler and her two best friends attend Mount Brighton Elementary, a dual-language school where the kids learn in English and Spanish, reflective of their diverse community. Together, they make up the Grove Street Detective Agency, part of a thrilling community-wide detective game. But their little game turns real and they are caught up in an actual mystery when a very special cheese vanishes into thin air after the town carnival. Now, everyone in their “big small” town is a suspect. With her friends beside her, Skyler must confront her own fears and get to the bottom of the mystery…before it’s too late.
Perfect for families and educators of young children, The Case of the Missing Cheese: a Grove Street Mystery shines a light on bilingualism, the vibrancy of a varied population, and the true meaning of community.
“Intelligent, intricately crafted, and
ultimately moving; non-stop fun.”
