Nate the Great and The Boring Beach Bag


Nate the Great and The Boring Beach Bag was written by Margaret XYZ. It is one of many books in the Nate the Great book series. The reading level of this delightful mystery book is 2.0 (2.0 is equivalent to second grade zero month - September).

Nate is at the beach swiming in the beautiful ocean with his dog Sludge. Oliver, the boy who follows everyone, swims out to Nate to tell him someone stole his boring blue beach bag. Nate agrees to help Oliver find his boring blue beach bag. Nate and Oliver set out to gather clues to help them solve the mystery. Nate talks with Oliver, Annie, Esmerelda, and the girl who runs the beach restaurant. Using his uncanny detective skills, Nate the Great uncovers the mystery. No one ever stole the bornig blue beach bag. It was Oliver who could not find his borning blue beach bag in the first place. Another mystery solved by Nate the Great.


MY TWO AND A HALF CENTS WORTH
This is a delightful mystery book series for young readers. The main character is a boy so I would say that this series is marked for young (1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade) male readers. Although I don't consider myself as young as a second grader, I do enjoy reading these fun, yet simple mystery stories written by Margaret XYZ.

Main Characters: Nate the Great, Oliver the boy with the boring beach bag, sludge Nate's dog, and Annie the girl running with her dog.
Setting: The beach.
AR Score: 100% ;)
