A Picture's Worth a Thousand Clues

(4) 4-6 Mysterious Makers of Shaker Street series. Illustrated by Robin Boyden. Neighbors Michael, Liz, and Leo love building and tinkering with everyday objects and discarded gadgetry, and they use their inventions to solve tame neighborhood mysteries. What's in the peculiar collection of large boxes in Mrs. Peterson's yard (Picture's)? And what's causing that unusual sound at night (Sounds)? Straightforward plots, black-and-white spot illustrations, and appended "Maker" activities make this series appealing for reluctant readers. Glos. Review covers these Mysterious Makers of Shaker Street titles: A Picture's Worth a Thousand Clues, and Sounds like Trouble.
