Pipsie, Nature Detective: The Lunchnapper

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Tracy Bishop. During a school trip to the woods, Pipsie and her turtle go on a scavenger hunt (easily duplicated by readers at home). Seeking items such as "animal tracks" and "something crawling," they also investigate a lunchnapping. The mystery is slight, adding little to the collection of nature facts, but well-designed illustrations communicate both habitat details and the young naturalist's eagerness to explore.
