School Detectives - Jane Cadwallader

This story tells the adventure of two children. One is studious and interested in all scientific things. The other is energetic and sporty. Although they live next door to each other and go to the same school, they never speak... until one day something changes all that. Kim and Tony learn to appreciate each other's skills and to bring these together to prevent a crime.

Children learn through them that critical thinking and collaboration can solve problems and that you don't have to be the same to be friends.
