"Who's the thief?"
Lately, 9-year-old Ti An Truong and her teammates have been on a losing streak at their local gymnastic meets. In the hopes of improving their luck, one of Ti An's friends brings a good-luck teddy bear to their competition. However, it disappears a short time later, and soon the Pinecones start accusing each other of taking it.
I felt bad for Ti An concerning the way her father pressures her for perfection in this book. But at least by the end of "Mystery at the Meet" they're able to come together and solve the missing teddy bear mystery. This is a good book/series for young readers (age 8 - 12) who like gymnastics.

Entertaining and good for hearing impaired children to read!
This book is great! It is a great mystery for young children and it also provides a way to include a hearing impaired child in a story without making the story about "a hearing impaired child". I have a hearing impaired son and I can not find stories about hearing impaired children. I was so impressed with this book that I have decided to purchase a copy of each book for my son's school library.

Book 3 in The Gymnasts Series
Fifth-grader Jodi Sutton has never done well in school, especially when it comes to writing in her class journal every day. However, she won't be able to attend an upcoming gymnastics mini-camp in Colorado Springs--something she's really been looking forward to--unless she completes her writing assignment before then. Will she be able to do it?
"Nobody's Perfect" is well written and ideal for young girls (8 - 12 years old) who are interested in gymnastics, particularly ones who are more "right-brained" and prefer gymnastics/sports over writing/schoolwork. Readers will also learn a good lesson: that there's more to life than being perfect.

Another Awesome Book by Ms. Levy!
As a 4th grade teacher, I use a lot of Elizabeth Levy's books in my classroom. My students absolutely LOVE the "Something Queer..." stories. They get very wrapped up in the mysteries and they enjoy the Gwen and Jill characters. There is ONE character that they love above all others, and that is- Fletcher the Bassett Hound.
We were all very excited to learn that Elizabeth and Mordicai would be working on books told from Fletcher's point of view. This book is delightful and funny--a great read aloud. I would also reccommend, "A Hare Raising Tale" and ALL of the Something Queer books. Not just for kids, but for dog lovers and mystery lovers alike!!!

Guessing is Half the Fun
Snacks seem to vanish without a trace! Invisible Inc. is on the case! This amateur detective club is comprised of a boy that can't be seen, a boy that can't hear and a girl that is really bossy. Invisible Inc. solves classroom mysteries and this one is difficult to solve. There are too many suspious suspects that could have committed the crime. It's a baffling case of "who done it" where the ending will surprise you. This book is very exciting to read with many twists and turns. The author keeps you guessing "who done it" by leaving lots of clues for the reader to try and piece together before the detective club does. I enjoyed this book because it kept me guessing. I recommend this book to any student who enjoys or wants to start reading mystery books. The author uses easy content for easy reading and comprehension. With simple vocabulary, even the lowest reader can read and enjoy this book. Pick up a copy today and judge for yourself!!

Fabulous children's reading
This book (and the entire "Something Queer" series) is a wonderful group of books for kids to read. The characters are lovable and the storylines are prefectly appropriate for young readers. I read these books when I was little and now I'm collecting them for when I have my own kids!
