[partner post: @algonquinyr]. ❤️Twelve-year-old Myrtle Hardcastle has a passion for justice and she has a mission. When her neighbor Miss Wodehouse dies under suspicious circumstances, Myrtle decides to take the case! With her father's law books, mum's microscope, passion for criminal science, and her governess Miss Ada Judson by her side, she wants to prove it was murder - even if no one believes her. And the second book has another mystery to solve! These were such clever and smart books (rec: ages 10 and up) - and my kids really liked them- my daughter especially loved the strong-willed Myrtle who wouldn't take no for an answer. It also sparked the "investigative" side of both my 8- and 10- year olds who now keep asking me for "mysteries" to solve! 🕵️♀️
Thanks again to @elizabethcbunce and Algonquin Young Readers @algonquinyr for these books and introducing us all to Myrtle! Happy publication day! 📖
