The Case of the Missing Mom

(4) 4-6 Museum Mysteries series. Illustrated by Lisa K. Weber. These museum-set mysteries involve the disappearance of paleontologists and dinosaur fossils (Mom) and Sally Ride's space suit (Space). The diverse cast (including an African American computer geek with two moms and a headscarf-wearing Somali American who loves astronomy) is superficially developed, but the fast-paced plots will appeal to mystery fans. Full-color illustrations, discussion questions, and writing prompts are included. Timeline. Glos. Review covers the following Museum Mysteries titles: The Case of the Missing Mom and The Case of the Stolen Space Suit.
