The Wright 3 by Blue Balliett

4.0

This book is a good mystery for middle grade readers, and a plus for this Chicago teacher is that it is set in Chicago! I think it would be even more powerful if the students lived in Hyde Park, but this would be a great book to pair with learning about Frank Lloyd Wright. This book did take a little bit to get into, so it’s a slow burn mystery, but it’s also about friendship. Also a great way to introduce students/young readers to magical realism. Don’t mind having it in my classroom library, I don’t think.
