Grant, Weng-Ho, and Seve go on a field trip to Warm Springs and the Little White House. They learn about FDR, polio, and a Creek Indian legend. At first they are sad to learn about a disease kids once got, the Great Depression, and what an iron lung is. But soon they realize that hope is not lost if you believe things can be better! The discovery of real Indian arrowheads helps them solve the puzzle of what it means-and does not mean-to be handicapped.
Each mystery incorporates history, geography, culture and cliffhanger chapters that keep kids begging for more! Each mystery includes SAT words, educational facts, fun and humor, built-in book club and activities. Each Carole Marsh Mystery also has an Accelerated Reader quiz, a Lexile Level, and a Fountas & Pinnell guided reading level.
