Bones and the Birthday Mystery

(3) K-3 Viking Easy-to-Read series. Illustrated by Barbara Johansen Newman. "Bones, Detective Jeffrey Bones" discovers he's the chief suspect in the disappearance of his grandfather's birthday card--a card that includes a present for Grandpa and for the young sleuth himself. Jeffrey cracks the case before the cake is cut. Adler's cleverly terse text (picture hard-boiled-mystery/easy-reader offspring) is smoothly reinforced by Newman's brightly patterned illustrations.
