In 1947, Englewood Elementary principal Mr. McGee created a massive treasure hunt for his students. There was just one problem — he disappeared before he could give the first clue. Seventy years later, third-grader Leila Beal is back on the case. Can she and her dog, Nugget, dig up enough old clues to find the mysterious treasure before it’s gone for good?

Leila and Nugget Mysteries are funny, action-packed chapter books that get even reluctant readers to beg for one more chapter before bed. They’re perfect for 6- to 10-year-old girls who love spunky heroes, cute dogs and exciting mysteries.
