Please?” Max agrees to help them find their missing possession and then he finds out what it is: a two-hundred-pound zucchini! Looking for a zucchini is “sure to be duller than dirt” Max thinks. However once he and Uncle Larry (the ghost) start digging around for clues they discover this new case is actually full of interesting possibilities. In fact the Zamboni sisters have some awfully suspicious neighbors. The big question is will Max and Uncle Larry manage to solve the mystery and locate the giant zucchini in time to enter it in the Harvest Fair's vegetable competition? Award-winning author L. M. Falcone has created a terrific early chapter book series with an appealing detective duo and laugh-out-loud dialogue.

The series provides a great introduction to the mystery genre perfect for honing critical-thinking and observation skills.\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxfordbookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44786921898163,"sku":"9781771380188","price":428.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/4164\/4723\/files\/blk_imp_17477328009781771380188.jpg?v=1762810756"},{"product_id":"the-ghost-and-max-monroe-case-1","title":"The Ghost and Max Monroe, Case #1","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this first title in the detective fiction series by L. M. Falcone ten-year-old Max Monroe is intrigued to discover that the carriage house behind his grandpa's home was once the office of the Monroe Detective Agency. Then he learns the agency had belonged to his grandpa's dead brother Larry. But Max didn't know he had a great-uncle. “Well he's dead” says Grandpa Harry “but his ghost still haunts the detective agency.” It seems Uncle Larry died of a broken heart because he “never solved one measly case.” However a surprise phone call from a magician named Marty the Magnificent with an offer of a detective job seems like the second chance Larry has been begging for. Except Larry is a ghost --- he can't work a case in the real world. But Max can! With Larry's help of course.   The offbeat idea of a boy detective with a ghost as a sidekick provides this story with lots of opportunities for inside jokes and misunderstandings. This is a terrific chapter book series for newly independent readers who are ready for something more challenging than a first reader with simple sentences humorous dialogue and very short chapters designed to make the reading experience less daunting. The limited black-and-white illustrations (around one per chapter) by Kim Smith provide details that enrich the story. The series provides a great introduction to the mystery genre perfect for honing critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxfordbookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44786924552371,"sku":"9781771380171","price":428.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/4164\/4723\/files\/blk_imp_17477328109781771380171.jpg?v=1762810809"},{"product_id":"the-ghost-and-max-monroe-case-3","title":"The Ghost and Max Monroe, Case #3","description":"\u003cp\u003e“I really need your help!” said the woman on the phone. “A note has been slipped into my purse. It says Beware ... a dirty trick!”  Max Monroe can't believe Rhonda Remington his favorite author is calling the Monroe Detective Agency looking for his help! It's hours before Rhonda competes for a spot in the Mystery Hall of Fame and she's desperate to find out who wrote the note and what kind of dirty trick they're planning for her big night. Max is thrilled to take her case. He may be only ten years old but he's a clever detective. And of course he has his partner Uncle Larry to help him. Well as much as an uncle who's a ghost can help! With funny dialogue and a cast of oddball characters author L. M. Falcone (a former private investigator herself) continues to delight with this third title in her early chapter book series about a super-talented boy detective who solves cases with the ghost of his uncle Larry. Though having a ghost sidekick that no one else can see creates opportunities for hilarious misunderstandings and mayhem when Max and Uncle Larry are out in public at its heart this is a true whodunit. The slowly building storyline allows children to exercise their critical-thinking skills as Max gathers clues and draws up a list of suspects. And the segmented chapters short sentences and line drawings throughout add to the appeal of this mystery series for newly independent readers.\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxfordbookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44786928058547,"sku":"9781771380195","price":428.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/4164\/4723\/files\/blk_imp_17477328159781771380195.jpg?v=1762810846"},{"product_id":"postal-workers","title":"Postal Workers","description":"\u003cp\u003eChildren will join letter carriers on their daily route then follow Grandma's birthday card from mailbox to sorting machine by truck and by plane on an international adventure in this Level 3 first reader.\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxfordbookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44789023310003,"sku":"9781553377474","price":240.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/4164\/4723\/files\/blk_imp_17478048539781553377474.jpg?v=1762838683"},{"product_id":"radical-candor-obs","title":"Radical Candor","description":"\u003cp\u003e* New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller multiple years running\u003cbr\u003e\n* Translated into 20 languages, with more than half a million copies sold worldwide\u003cbr\u003e\n* A Hudson and Indigo Best Book of the Year\u003cbr\u003e\n* Recommended by Shona Brown, Rachel Hollis, Jeff Kinney, Daniel Pink, Sheryl Sandberg, and Gretchen Rubin\u003cbr\u003e\nRadical Candor has been embraced around the world by leaders of every stripe at companies of all sizes.
