Mike's Mystery

Title: Mike's Mystery

Author: Gertrude Chandler Warner

Summary: When the Alden children return to Mystery Ranch a year after uranium was discovered there, they are surprised to find that a small town has grown on the site. One of Benny's friends, Mike, has moved there with his mother and brother. When Mike's house burns to the ground, the children are determined to discover who did it and why.

Recommendation: Yes, it is a mystery with heart. When Mike's family find themselves without a home, the whole town pulls together to get them back on their feet. I hope that someday our community can be as close-knit as that.
