What are words bunched up together supposed to mean? A list? A recipe for disaster? Takes great care into the importance of ink on pages and how far it can carry us while Nate the Great tries to solve this whimsical little mystery.

Figured it was time to read a Nate the Great book since I'm married to a great Nate.

Story is cute and easy to follow for young readers. Includes science projects at the end that relate to the story.

The third novel in the Nate the Great series really won me over with its wry humor and story construction. A mystery just difficult enough to engage my son while entertaining both of us with its cast of quirky characters.
