Mysteries for Kids

I spend the beginning of the school year introducing mysteries.  Using picture book read-alouds, literature circles, and an oral book report, the fourth graders immerse themselves in all sorts of books.

Picture Books

Grandpa's Teeth
Rod Clement, 1997

Clever and funny.  After grandpa's teeth are stolen the police are called in and every possible solution is examined.  Together the town comes togther to help set things right.
