Here are some great mysteries to help you get your thinking caps on. Books are suggested for Third Grade, but remember that each reader is different and might find something interesting at another level.

In the sleepy town of Shady Oaks, Nancy Drew and her friends investigate an exhibit of photographs, rumored to be cursed, and their connection to the disappearance of two people.
Cursed by an old carnival game, sixth-grader Rex Dexter uses his new ability to communicate with dead animals to investigate the mysterious deaths of endangered zoo animals.
Nikki Tesla is a genius, so mostly she finds school boring, and amuses herself by inventing things, like her mysterious missing father; trouble is most of her inventions have serious, lethal potential (like the death ray, which just blew a hole in her floor); so she and her ferret are hustled off to the special Genius Academy with classmates who are equally exceptional, although she still worries about fitting in--but when her death ray disappears she has something bigger to worry about: who took it and what are they planning to do?
Discovering that someone intends to rig the science fair at their school, Clark, Diana, and Bruce try to find out who it is and prevent the crime.
Left with nowhere to live after the loss of his parents, Ollie winds up at his grandfather's home on a rain-soaked island in Sueño Bay where he and his new classmates come together over a mystery involving raccoon-like moon creatures.
When their Aunt Shallot, aka Magique, Queen of Magic, goes missing on the Uncanny Express, Jaundice, Kale, and the famous detective Hugo Frommage seek to solve the mystery and rescue the magician.
