About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is starting to notice the world around them and needs a boost in self-confidence regarding their own unique way of thinking. This early chapter book introduces Jennifer Cam Jansen, a girl whose photographic memory (her mental click) helps her solve everyday mysteries. In this installment, Cam must use her observational skills to track down a thief who stole her mother's video camera containing footage of a large snake. The story beautifully reinforces themes of curiosity, justice, and teamwork as Cam and her friend Eric work together. It is perfectly calibrated for children aged 6 to 9 who are transitioning to independent reading. Parents will appreciate how it models logical thinking and celebrates a female protagonist who is defined by her intellect and problem-solving abilities.
