This is one of the last A-Z Mysteries in the series.
Ruth
Rose wins four tickets to a Penelope Gwinn concert and invites her two friends,
Dink and Josh, to go with her. The fourth ticket will go to her dad, because
someone has to take them. The concert is great, even better than expected.
During intermission, Dink has an accident and hurts his arm. On their way to the
first-aid ten they learn that someone has stolen Penelope Gwinn's diamond
necklace. Of course these three can't leave a mystery unsolved!
This
is a great entry-level mystery for young readers. It has all the elements of a
good mystery: crime, clues, red herrings, suspects, three determined kid
detectives, and a satisfying conclusion.
TARGET AUDIENCE: 4-6 grades
MYSTERY SUSPENCE: Fun & age appropriate
