Frankie Potts and The Sparkplug Mysteries by Juliet Jacka
This is less of a mystery story and more of a story about a girl who WANTS to be in a mystery story and it’s a lot of fun. Frankie Potts is one sassy young detective. After she finds a stray dog, she’s determined to work out where he’s come from, and also why her grandmother is acting so odd. The story is fast-paced and clear, with fun illustrations from Phoebe Morris, and a whole lot of pluck from Frankie and the supporting cast of characters. This is a delightful read and I can’t wait for more Frankie adventures.
