The Buried Bones Mystery

(4) 4-6 Clubhouse Mysteries series. Illustrated by Jesse Joshua Watson. Four fifth-graders become involved in local mysteries. In Bones, they uncover bones near their clubhouse; Tunnel finds the gang trapped in a tunnel that was part of the Underground Railroad; in Caesar's, a camping trip turns into a Shawnee manhood ceremony. The mysteries aren't all that suspenseful and the black history lessons aren't subtle, but the readable texts are diverting. Review covers these Clubhouse Mysteries titles: The Buried Bones Mystery, Lost in the Tunnel of Tim, and Shadows of Caesar's Creek.
