About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is starting to notice physical differences between themselves and others, or when they need a boost of confidence to tackle everyday problems. This charming mystery follows Aven Green, a sharp-witted third-grader who was born without arms but doesn't let that stop her from being the neighborhood's premier detective. Through humor and a 'super-powered brain,' Aven navigates school life and a double mystery involving a missing lunch and a lost dog. It is an excellent choice for parents looking to normalize physical disability through a character who is defined by her personality, wit, and resilience rather than her limitations. It is perfectly pitched for early elementary readers transitioning into chapter books.
