K-3Viking Easy-to-Read series.
Illustrated by
Barbara Johansen Newman.
At FunLand, Grandpa wins a teddy bear at the Basketball Shoot but loses the roller coaster tickets. It's up to boy detective Jeffrey Bones to track them down. Divided into five chapters, Adler's easy reader mystery has just the right dose of humor (Jeffrey decides not to ride the big roller coaster because it's "too scary for Teddy"), and Newman's illustrations reinforce the text nicely.
