King & Kayla and the Case of the Missing Dog Treats by Dori Hillestad Butler

5.0

King and Kayla are my favorite sleuths in kidlit! From missing treats to mysterious intruders, there's no puzzle they can't solve together.

This is such a sweetly humorous, well-crafted series for a child's first chapter book! This series has everything I look for to support newly independent readers - high contrast between the text and page, good spacing between the lines, lots of high frequency sight words, and above all else, a compelling story. I love the everyday diversity. The repetitious formula somehow never gets old, either. Each book made me chuckle!
