These chapter books introduce beginning readers to the detective mystery genre. Perfect for the Common Core, kids can problem-solve with Nate, using logical thinking to solve mysteries Rosamond is visiting Scandinavia when she loses something. She wants Nate the Great to find it, even though he doesn't know what she lost, what country she lost it in, or when she lost it. And he's thousands of miles away. But if Nate doesn't take the case, Rosamond plans to hire the King of Sweden. Nate doesn't want Rosamond to bother the poor king. And he does want the chance to solve his first-ever international case. Can Nate find whatever Rosamond lost without leaving his neighborhood?
My five year-old son just finished reading this entire book with almost no help in one sitting - he loved finding the clues along the way to solving the mystery. This whole series of books is great for boys and girls just beginning their reading journey.
Fun to read!

I am a title I reading teacher and I was looking for some books to recommend to my second graders. I bought some of the Nate the Great series books to look at. This book was the first one that I read and I found it to be very enjoyable. I know the children will enjoy it also, especially the characters, Nate and Rosamond. Boys and girls who are ages 5-8 will relate to Nate and Rosamond and the adventures they go through. If you are looking for fun, short chapter books for your first-third graders, I think they will really enjoy these.
