"When a piece of cake goes missing from her classroom, a traditionally built young boy is tagged as the culprit. Precious, however, is not convinced. She sets out to find the real thief. Along the way she learns that your first guess isn’t always right. She also learns how to be a detective."
Geared for children 7 years old and up. There are beautiful simple woodcuts on just about every page. It starts off with Obed telling his daughter, Precious, about how he came face to face with a lion as a child and how he is still alive... Even an adult would be captivated by this interesting and sweet story of a little girl in Africa.

I have the first book in the series. I am going to have to start it as soon as I finish the books I am currently reading. I always enjoy finding a good book to read.
I have read the the # 1 stories, the whole series, and found them delightful. The movie made from them is pretty sweet too...
I think I will have a look at the library for those books... and what time would you like me over for tea?? ;)
Oooh, I didn't know about either the tea or the children's book. How fun!
Those books look pretty good, I will have to check them out! The tea looks scrumptious too! And to answer your question, our baby boy, William Jean-Patrice, is due July 24. Thank you, he is a much prayed for and hoped for miracle!!!
