Detective Dylan and the Hunt for Home Plate by M.J. Murray
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Detective Dylan and the Hunt for Home Plate is the second book in the Youth Sleuths Chapter Book Series. Dylan and his little sister Emily are off on another adventure as they set out to solve their latest mystery. When they arrive at the baseball field, they discover that someone stole all the bases. Dylan, Emily, and their trusty sidekick dog, Theodore set off with Dylan’s detective kit to find out where the bases went and who stole them. As they follow the trail of clues and interview potential suspects, they learn about problem solving, family, friendship, and teamwork. This was an entertaining and engaging book that is full of mystery, adventure, playground pirates, and fun. The characters are endearing and the bond between Dylan and his little sister Emily is heartwarming. As a bonus, the author includes a list of words and exercises at the end of the book.
