Mystery Read Alouds

We are at the end of our mystery unit of study. You’ve done a great job of listening, turning and talking, and jotting about:

  • crime solvers
  • suspects
  • red herrings
  • clues
  • favorite/surprising parts

I am wondering which read aloud did you like better? “Absent Author” by Ron Roy or  The WhoDunIt Detective Agency: The Diamond Mystery” by Martin Widmark and Helen Willis? Why? Make sure you write details to help explain your reasoning.
