About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is curious about the world beyond their neighborhood or needs a boost in understanding how to work effectively within a friend group. It is an ideal choice for the child who enjoys logic puzzles but needs a story that emphasizes empathy and cross-cultural respect. The vibrant illustrations and varied typography make it particularly supportive for readers who are transitioning into longer chapter books but still crave visual engagement. In this adventure, the Thea Sisters travel to India to help their friend Ashvin solve a baffling mystery involving jewel-stealing monkeys. While the plot is a fast-paced whodunit, the heart of the story lies in the sisters' appreciation for Indian culture and their collaborative problem-solving. It is perfectly aged for 7 to 10 year olds, offering a safe, exciting entry point into global geography and social responsibility without being overly heavy or complex.
