INTERMEDIATE FICTION

The Jigsaw Jungle

(4) 4-6 Twelve-year-old Claudia's father has mysteriously left, and she's staying with her grandfather. The intergenerational pair follows a scavenger hunt that ultimately reveals a truth Claudia's father has been hiding for a long time. The story is told in a multimedia format, including texts, video transcripts, and Claudia's "notes to the reader." Although this format is likely to appeal to young readers, it slightly impedes Claudia's character development.
