Precious Ramotswe's Very First Cases
review 1: Another great story about Precious Ramotswe's childhood following The Great Cake Mystery! This book would be a grand introduction to life in Botwana for kids (about 30 years ago when Precious was a child). This book would pair well with the Anna Hibiscus series set in modern Nigeria. Although this is the size of the JChapter books, it is catalogued older because of the word choice and number of words per page. It will make a great read aloud book.
review 2: The Mystery of Meerkat Hill is the second Precious Ramotswe Mystery for Young Readers by popular British author Alexander McCall Smith. In this instalment, young Precious befriends two newcomers to her school, a sister and brother named Teb and Pontsho, and is rewarded with an introduction to their novel pet
... more. Her second case has her tracking down the family’s missing cow, but her ingenuity does not end there: she employs an innovative method of getting the animal back to its owners. Once again filled with charming illustrations by Iain McIntosh, as well as a recipe for mouth-watering fat cakes, this is a delightful read for young and old alike. less
