About This Book
This entry in the beloved Young Cam Jansen series introduces early readers to the joy of mystery-solving. Fifth-grader Cam Jansen, nicknamed for her photographic memory, uses her special ability to "click" mental pictures and recall details to solve everyday puzzles. In "The Lion's Lunch Mystery," Cam and her friend Eric are at the zoo when a classmate's lunch disappears. This book is perfect for children transitioning to chapter books, offering a fast-paced, dialogue-led story that promotes logic, observation skills, and persistence in a light, engaging way.
A field trip to the zoo is fun for Cam Jansen and her classmates--until lunchtime. Everyone else's sandwich is safely delivered, but Danny can't find his anywhere! Only Cam and her amazing memory can crack this mystery.
