When your child is ready for a longer chapter book but still craves the visual engagement of a graphic novel, reach for this side-splitting mystery.

In this adventure, young Mac B. travels to Ireland to solve a locked-room mystery involving the Crown Jewels, facing everything from cobras to ancient revenge plots. The book masterfully balances high-stakes spy adventure with a relatable young protagonist who uses logic and perseverance rather than superpowers. It is a fantastic choice for building a child's confidence in independent reading, as the short chapters and expressive illustrations keep the momentum high.
