Gr. 3-6. Fans of mystery and detective stories who might like to try some sleuthing on their own, will get dozens of tips--from camouflage ideas and secret codes to how to test a crime scene for fingerprints--in this "strategy guide" for four amateur sleuths who call themselves the Alligators. The ideas may be fun, but they aren't always practical: the hidden cameras seem invasive and difficult to manage, and a life jacket jerry-rigged from a pair of pants could be dangerous. Young people following in the footsteps of David Adler's Cam Jansen or Louise Fitzhugh's Harriet the Spy will have a great time with this, but the book will also be a useful resource for teachers who include the reading or writing of mysteries in the curriculum.
