Overview:
The Murdle Junior series brings the internationally bestselling Murdle puzzle-mystery phenomenon to younger readers, with this three-book paperback set offering over a hundred combined logic puzzles, codes and whodunnits.

Perfect for curious 8-12 year olds who love clues and deduction.
About the Books:
This collection opens with "Murdle Junior: Curious Crimes for Curious Minds," inviting readers to join junior sleuths as they crack codes, navigate secret maps and solve mazes to unmask cunning culprits across dozens of bite-sized mysteries — a playful, confidence-building introduction to logical deduction. "Murdle Junior 2: Ready, Set, Solve!" ups the stakes with a cosmic twist, sending computer whiz Olivia, tough Jake, quick-thinking Julius and cat detective Buster McPaws on intergalactic puzzle adventures blending sci-fi fun with spatial reasoning and teamwork. The final book, "Murdle Junior Mysteries: Sleuths on the Loose," is a different kind of read: a full mystery novel co-authored with bestselling children's author Chris Grabenstein, following best friends Jake and Sterling as they investigate the sudden disappearance of their teacher, Miss Saffron, uncovering schoolyard secrets and a genuine kidnapping plot. Together, the three books give young readers a rounded detective experience — hands-on puzzles paired with a page-turning story — in the witty, clue-packed style that made Murdle a worldwide hit, sharpening critical thinking while never losing sight of the fun.
