Although spunky Cam (short for Camera) Jansen has an amazing memory, the mysteries she solves in this Viking Easy-to-Read series are always grounded in the everyday. This tenth entry, set at school, is preceded by a memory self-test that puts kids right into Cam's shoes. Then it's on to the story. It's hard to miss Jenny, the new girl in school, because she talks and talks, but before the day is out, she disappears! Is she lost? Did she go to the playground? Did she go to the wrong classroom? Cam figures it out with a clever play on words as part of the solution. The artwork is perky and colorful, and generous line spacing with just five or six words per line make the book particularly appealing to the new readers for whom it's intended.

Once again, Cam is back with a mystery that only she can solve. This latest in the series gives kids another chance to pit their memory against Cam's photographic recall, and Adler's humor about a new student's confusion about school rules will entertain young readers. Pleasant color illustrations accompany the text.
