The Usual Suspects

(3) 4-6 Middle-schooler Thelonius Mitchell is a bright student, but he's also disruptive. As a result, he's placed in the special education class. He and his classmates are perceived as guilty until proven innocent when a gun is found near the school; Thelonius sets out to clear his classmates' names. A satisfying whodunit that inspires readers to root for the misfits.
