Cam Jansen, the girl with the photographic memory, returns in this collection of three full-length mysteries. While her fifth-grade class celebrates Sports and Good Nutrition Day, Cam nabs a bakery thief, locates a missing soccer ball, and identifies two teenage robbers. Class comedian Danny's groan-inducing jokes help offset the preachy exercise-and-eat-healthy-food message. Lively black-and-white drawings illustrate the stories.
