(3) 4-6 Translated by Chantal Wright. Rico's mom calls him a "child proddity": "I think an awful lot, but I need a lot of time to figure things out." Nevertheless, he manages to save his new friend from the mysterious kidnapper Mr. 2000. Rico's likable and compelling voice combined with the contemporary Berlin setting make this selection stand out from other middle-grade mysteries.
