About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is navigating the social complexities of elementary or middle school, especially if they are feeling a sense of injustice or are looking for ways to contribute to their local community. It is an ideal pick for students who respond well to humor and fast-paced puzzles rather than heavy emotional dramas. The story follows the Crimebiters gang as they tackle two simultaneous problems: a stolen math test and a local animal shelter facing closure. Through these dual mysteries, the book explores the nuances of friendship, the importance of academic integrity, and the rewarding nature of animal rescue. It is perfectly pitched for ages 8 to 12, offering a lighthearted but meaningful look at how kids can take responsibility and advocate for what is right.
