The Billie B Mysteries take Billie into a new genre… MYSTERY!
Billie B Brown and her friends; Jack, Mika and Alex, all of them now a few years older decide to start up a Secret Mystery Club and scour the neighborhood looking for mysteries to uncover
In Strawberry Thief someone has stolen all of the ripe strawberries from Mika's garden and the Secret Mystery Club is on the case. Could it be the gardener? Or the neighbor who just made a huge batch of strawberry jam? Whoever it was they won't get far - not with the Secret Mystery Club on their trail.
The Billie B Mysteries ask the reader to join Billie as she discovers a problem or mystery and fixes or solves it! Billie uses her smarts, her friends and her commonsense to get to the bottom of things.
The Billie B Mysteries are a little longer, with a higher reading level, than regular Billie B Brown books, and Billie is slightly older. This caters for precocious Billie fans, older fans of the series and new readers, who might not have discovered the world of Billie B. Brown.
From a parent:
This was the first mystery book my sons ever read. They LOVED reading it! They discussed various parts of the plot, and had a blast working out all the pieces!
