Before she grew up to form the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency, 8 year-old Preciouse Ramotswe must solve the mystery of who is stealing treats from her classroom. She will discover it may not be who everyone thinks! Can she solve the case in time or will the wrong person be punished? If you look for clues throughout the book, you may be able to solve the case! I recommend this book for K-3 (lak)
