The Buried Bones Mystery by Sharon M. Draper

4.0

This is a satisfying chapter book mystery story about a group of fifth grade boys who build a clubhouse and solve mysteries after their beloved basketball court is vandalized. Set in Cincinnati, Ohio, the story features four African American boys through their adventures in their neighborhood. When the boys discover a box of bones buried by their new clubhouse, they decide to investigate and find out where the bones came from. Though the mystery is somewhat slight and solved without too much input from the boys, I loved that the characters are well fleshed-out for a chapter book series.

Hand this to kids who like realistic adventure stories.
