REVIEW

Wallace and Grace are owl friends who enjoy solving mysteries together.  Wallace likes to create lists and find things.  Grace is the go-getter of the duo, helping get Wallace up and active.  In each book, the pair comes across a situation that requires them to investigate.  In book one, a rabbit asks them to check out a garden where he swears he saw a ghost.  In book two, Wallace and Grace try to discover what happened to Monty the chipmunk's cupcake.  And in book three, while attempting to complete a scavenger hunt, Wallace and Grace help a puppy find his way home.  With the appealing characters, cheerful, full-color illustrations, and fun story lines, this series makes for enjoyable reading for young readers.  The books also do a nice job of showing problem-solving skills as Wallace and Grace make decisions about what to write down, what questions to ask, and where to go to look for answers.  All-in-all, a winning series for young readers who like a good mystery.
