The Case of the Mossy Lake Monster: And Other Super-Scientific Cases

(4) 1-3 Doyle and Fossey, Science Detectives series. Illustrated by Barbara Johansen Newman. Fifth-graders Drake Doyle and Nell Fossey use their science know-how to solve four mysteries. The treatment of science is simplistic (principles of static electricity, buoyancy, and ultraviolet light are defined rather than explored), but the conversational, humorous writing has appeal. Cartoon-style illustrations and instructions for related experiments are included.
