Jigsaw Jones is back! And for a dollar a day, Jigsaw Jones can make your problems go
away. Danika and Joey find a note from
outer space in a book called Messages
from Mars. They got the book from a Little
Free Library, where you take and book and leave a book. At school, their teacher, Ms. Gleason,
announces that they are going to have a surprise visitor from far, far away. Three different clues lead them to Ms. Gleason. She fesses up to writing the note from outer
space, but won’t tell them who the special visitor is until tomorrow when they
come to school.
The mystery guest is the perfect ending to this light Jigsaw Jones Mystery book. Young readers will enjoy following the clues
and trying to figure out who wrote the mysterious message and whether or not
they were from outer space. The illustrations
are fun and frequent, and out of this world.
EL-ADVISABLE.
