3. Canned by Alex Shearer
What do you collect? Coins? Sports cards? Stamps? How about cans?
Our main character Fergal is considered ‘gifted’ by family and friends
He begins a can collection, spending free time scouring bargain bins for perfectly imperfect cans
His parents tell him he can only have 50 cans at a time so he is forced to open 1….and what he finds is utterly ‘disgusting and diabolical’
Join Fergal and his new friend (and fellow can collector) Charlotte as their “collection” leads them to unsolving a serious mystery!

4. The westing Game Ellen Raskin
This murder mystery takes place at Sunset Towers-an ‘exclusive’ apartment complex where our cast of characters are invited to live
Our main character is Turtle Wexler, a young girl who is forced to live in the shadow of her ‘perfect’ sister Angela
The characters (all sixteen of them!) are invited to play a game (solve the murder of Samuel Westing) with 200 million dollars up for grabs…who will win?
Would you play the Westing Game? Great for fans of Clue (movie and game) and for those who love a good, bumbling mystery!
