| book description |

Two starred reviews! A boy with Mosaic Down syndrome navigates entering a mainstream classroom, making new friends, and standing up to bullies all while trying to catch a thief and save his home in this â€œsuspenseful, emotionalâ€ (Publishers Weekly, starred review) middle grade mystery from New York Times bestselling and award-winning author Wesley King. Benny isnâ€™t your average boy from Newfoundland. He lives in a retirement home that his mother runs, he has an eighty-six-year-old best friend named Mr. Tom, he knows more about fixing boats than video games, and he has Mosaic Down syndrome. When Benny transitions to a mainstream classroom for the first time, the other students tease him for his differencesâ€¦except for Salma. Sheâ€™s new, too, and not your typical Newfoundland girl: sheâ€™s tech savvy, speaks Arabic, plays basketball, and isnâ€™t afraid to eat lunch with Benny. So when Salmaâ€™s grandmother and several other residents in the retirement home are robbed, Benny asks Salma to help him catch the thief. Time is not on their side as an inspector threatens to close the home. And to make matters worse, Benny and Salma must crack the case while working on a class assignment with their bullies. Can Benny save his home and take a stand against the bullies once and for all? Heâ€™s about to find out, bâ€™ys.
