Calvin Reed and the Missing Map of Everything

Calvin Reed and the Missing Map of Everything is a warm, funny middle-grade school mystery about friendship, teamwork, problem-solving, and learning that even the busiest brain does not have to carry every answer alone.

Calvin Reed loves a good mystery, but this time the mystery is bigger than one clue, one team, or one busy brain.

When Calvin’s giant master map for Community Clue Day disappears, the whole school event starts to wobble. Clue cards get mixed up. Signs end up in the wrong places. Folders go missing. Everyone is looking to Calvin for answers — and Calvin is trying very hard to fix everything before the mystery turns into a complete mess.

With Neptune, his lovable puppy, and a team of friends by his side, Calvin follows the trail piece by piece. Along the way, he begins to understand that solving a problem does not always mean doing it all yourself. Sometimes the best answers only appear when everyone shares what they know.

This heartwarming chapter book is perfect for young readers who enjoy school mysteries, funny puppy moments, clever clues, and stories with real heart.
