A missing birthday present, and one key unknown

Rosamond’s missing birthday present gives Nate the Great a mystery with an unusual obstacle: she won’t tell him what the present is. The case invites young readers to follow a process of logical problem-solving as Nate works to locate something whose identity is unknown. The book is part of a chapter-book series introducing beginning readers to detective mysteries, and it includes a Fun Activities section at the back. Its central puzzle turns on the gap between finding a missing item and knowing what, exactly, to look for.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Beginning readers exploring chapter books and detective mysteries
  • Children who enjoy puzzles involving clues and logical thinking
  • Young readers interested in a story with activities at the back

"Brisk and bright as always, with pictures of a lovably scowling Nate and a voguishly strange Rosamond . . . for added appeal."--Kirkus Reviews

"Readers will have a dandy time following the case and will sympathize with Nate's wish that he had failed to solve it when he finds the dismaying 'present'."--Publishers Weekly

"The tongue-in-cheek mystery unfolds briskly. Simont's . . . cartoons are in tune with Sharmat's comic touch."--Booklist
