On the Job!
Casey is a quirky fifth-grader who loves to solve mysteries such as the missing hair band or the wrapped presents. Casey often stumbles into new cases in everyday life–such as the time when a new girl, Jan, came to her school. While Casey worked to solve the mystery of who Jan is, she discovered she had made a new friend in the process.
She has a good heart, and is friendly to her school mates, including Dina who has no end of negative things to say. Casey would like her love interest, AJ, to notice her. 
All of this is done in comic book form or graphic novel design. This is a fun way for lots of kids who don’t like to read, to read, and great for those who are already reading lovers.
I thought the cat mystery was great, and hope Mr., that is Ms., Muffin gets to stay with Casey. I had a similar thing happen with my cat, Chester, that had to be renamed Chesterina.
Children aged seven to eleven-years-old will enjoy this five-star book.
Thanks to Candlewick Books for providing Tickmenot with a book to review. Opinions are my own.
