Nate The Great

Nate The Great - Marjorie Weinman Sharmat, illustrated by Marc Simont
Sharmat/Simont
ISBN: 0-385-73017-9

My rating: 5 out of 5

This is a fantastic book. It follows this pancake-eating boy detective as he tries to track down a missing picture. This mystery is written very well for a primary audience with it's basic story and short, simple sentences. Primary students will enjoy this book because they will try to solve the mystery right along with Nate and they will laugh at the situations along the way.

"Nate The Great" is an entertaining and engaging mystery story that would be great to incorporate into an art lesson dealing with colors and mixing them together.
