| book description |

  When a dog disappears, the real mystery begins. Romi wasn't looking for a mystery when she moved to a new home. But when Shadow, the adventurous dog next door, suddenly disappears, most people assume he's simply wandered off. Romi knows something isn't right, and determined to uncover the truth, she joins up with new friend Finn, on a search that takes them through clues, unexpected discoveries and difficult choices. As the mystery deepens, they'll need teamwork and determination to bring Shadow home. Will they find him before it's too late?   Every story starts with an open book. 'Open book is designed not just to help children get through a book - it's to help them feel success and most importantly, to feel the joy of being a reader' Dr Sarah Moseley Developed to be accessible, the books in this series are especially supportive for children with diverse needs, including autism, ADHD, speech and language challenges (SLCN), dyspraxia and more. Simple images at the start of each chapter make unfamiliar words clear, helping readers build confidence and enjoy reading independently with understanding. Supportive layouts with short chapters and predictable structure. Carefully crafted to balance readability with rich, compelling storytelling, helping more children experience the joy and confidence of independent reading. High interest but age-appropriate to ensure engagement and challenge. Off-white paper for reduced visual load. Dyslexia-friendly fonts and spacing.   Dr Sarah Moseley is an Educational Adviser, author, researcher, and keynote speaker specialising in literacy, SEND, neurodiversity, and inclusive practice. With over 25 years of experience across mainstream, specialist, and alternative education, she supports schools, trusts, and organisations to create ambitious, accessible learning environments that remove barriers, raise aspirations, and enable every learner to thrive. Combining research, leadership, and classroom expertise, Sarah bridges theory and practice to deliver practical, evidence-informed approaches that improve participation, achievement, and outcomes for all learners.   Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with diverse needs. This series brings together engaging, character-led stories with thoughtful, inclusive design to support a wide range of readers. Why not check out other titles in Scholastic's Open Book series!
