As a reward for helping Lucky O'Leary track down his stolen lottery ticket in The Lucky Lottery, Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose are on a complementary trip to Wheat Ranch in Bozeman, Montana. There, they meet the Wheat family--Ma, Pa, and Jud--their cook, Lulu, and their hired hand, Thumbs. Meanwhile, th...
After The Kidnapped King severely stretched my suspension of disbelief, The Lucky Lottery offers Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose a mystery that's far more realistic for them to solve.

So... I think this is the A to Z Mysteries book that makes the least sense from a "kid-appropriate mysteries" sense. I don't mean to imply that the content is by any means inappropriate for children, of course. Rather, I'm referring to the premise itself. In these "child sleuth" books, one or more e...

The Canary Caper is the third book of my favorite series from early childhood, A to Z Mysteries. It's another adorable mystery starring Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose, and this time they're on the trail of a petnapper.The plot, a simple mystery has two flaws to speak of, the second of which is just perso...
The Bald Bandit is another fun little mystery in the A to Z Mysteries series, though it's far from the best of the twenty-six books.While it tells an entertaining story with a twist ending that young children will likely be surprised by--even if their parents aren't--even I, in all my love of the se...
