Who Stole Uncle Sam?

(4) 4-6 Coach Banner steps inside a Porta Potty to change into his Uncle Sam costume before the annual Memorial Day race--then seemingly vanishes. Freeman takes her time building up to his mysterious disappearance, and she lobs a lot of balls into the air here (Vietnam War, lawn-care chemicals, baseball), but her super-sleuths Alex and Yasmeen, lively and likable as ever, keep readers hooked.
