For September, we are reading The Puzzle of the Paper Daughter (An American Girl “Julie” Mystery) by Kathryn Reiss.
When Julie discovers a mysterious note written in Chinese, she brings it to her friend Ivy to translate. The note promises great treasure, but it doesn’t quite make sense–and Julie suspects it may be written in a secret code. Soon after, the girls’ beloved dolls are stolen, and Julie can’t shake the feeling that there’s a connection between the stolen dolls and the mysterious note. Will Julie and Ivy find the treasure? And will they ever get their dolls back?
