This book is about the beloved American Girl character, Kit, who is growing up during the Great Depression. In this mystery, Kit finally earns a job at her local newspaper. She is in charge of the kid's column, and she finds some strange "monkey business." She is determined to find the mysterious story and solve an unknown mystery. As students read this book, they will become entranced as mysteries heighten and unravel.
This book would be a great recommendation for students that have fallen in love with the Kit character.
This would also be a good book for younger students to introduce the genre of mystery.
