What Parents Should Know

Mild PerilMild

Kids investigate a crime and follow a suspicious character, but are never in true danger.

Sensitive Topics

The book deals with the concept of crime (theft, deceit) but in a very sanitized and non-violent way. The focus is on the puzzle, not the transgression. The resolution is always hopeful and clear-cut: the criminals are caught, and order is restored. The moral universe is simple and secular, with a strong emphasis on right versus wrong.
