À propos de cet audio

Twelve-year-old Mizzy wants to prove to the world that she can solve mysteries just like Sherlock Holmes, despite a reputation for tall tales. A charming new mystery series for middle-grade listeners, starring a girl with Down syndrome.

Twelve-year-old Mizzy dreams of being a detective and she won't let anything stand in her way—not her reputation for tall tales, or her embarrassing fear of escalators, and definitely not her Down syndrome. Dumped for the summer with cousins who've outgrown her, Mizzy feels even more sidelined than usual. But when she discovers Great Aunt Jane's diaries in a locked wardrobe in their spare room, and realizes her aunt didn't just die in her sleep but under suspicious circumstances, everything changes. What's more...someone in the family appears to have been involved.

Under the guise of a family tree project for school, and armed with a brand-new set of Pip-Squeaks markers, Mizzy grabs the chance to prove herself to her cousins—and the world.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"[R]eaders will root for Mizzy as she uncovers family secrets and pieces together a surprisingly complex case. Mizzy—whom debut author Hatcher-Smith, a speech-language pathologist, modeled on kids she’s worked with—is appealingly multifaceted. Her desire to be taken seriously will resonate, and her growth is poignant and satisfying. . . . This auspicious series opener will leave readers eager for the next case."—Kirkus Reviews

I loved the protagonist, Mizzy the Marvelous, in this funny middle school book. She has Down Syndrome, and she’s also a super smart detective looking for a mystery to solve. The narrator has Down Syndrome as well, with the result being both endearing and entertaining. I hope there are more to follow!

Lovable heroine and wonderful narration
