New Favorite Mystery Reads for Kids

These books all come highly recommended by the Pirfly review team. Grab them for your young readers today.

Book Scavenger by Jennifer Chambliss Bertman

This is the perfect read for kids like me who love puzzles and mysteries. Jennifer Chambliss Bertman’s debut novel follows Emily and James, two books and puzzle-loving kids, on their quest around San Francisco. They find out what happened to Garrison Griswold, the Book Scavenger game’s inventor (geo-caching with books). Kids can play Book Scavenger in real life and seek and hide their favorite books around town.

Greenglass House by Kate Milford, illustrated by Jaime Zollars

This is a classic whodunit story told from Milo’s perspective, a young boy who helps his family run an inn for smugglers. He’s looking forward to a quiet family holiday when an odd cast of characters unexpectedly shows up at the inn. Each guest has a different connection to the inn, and Milo and the cook’s daughter work to unravel the mystery that links them all.

Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library by Chris Grabenstein

Twelve kids are invited to spend a night in the town’s new library created by the legendary game maker Luigi Lemoncello. Adventure and fun are nonstop as the kids work to solve the clues and escape from the library. Perfect for kids who liked Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or Night at the Museum.
