American Girl Mysteries Series

The books in the American Girl Mysteries series are written by various authors, and we have found them to be hit or miss. Some contain inappropriate behaviors made to seem acceptable, such as dishonesty or disrespect toward family members and others, but the ones that we do recommend are fun, clean, and exciting mysteries that expose readers to different time periods and settings.

Books in this series we recommend: A Bundle of Trouble, The Cry of the Loon, The Jazzman’s Trumpet, Midnight in Lonesome Hollow, The Smuggler’s Secrets, The Stolen Sapphire, The Thief in the Theater (note: this one does briefly mention ghosts and witches, because it involves a production of Macbeth)

Books in this series that did not make the booklist: A Growing Suspicion, Lost in the City, Peril at King’s Creek, The Runaway Friend, The Silver Guitar
