Molly, Rajani, Humphrey, and Wellington, the cunning golden retriever, must work together, using all their wits to uncover the truth and save London. But the bigger mystery might be the real identity of the famous detective who brought them together. Featuring a diverse case, the Langridge’s clever writing, and Andy Hirsch’s art, Baker Street Peculiars is a fun series readers of any age will enjoy.

Princess Leia Royal RebelPrincess Leia Royal Rebel SC – Scholastic continues their Backstories series of character biographies with the beloved princess from the Star Wars Universe. Princess Leia is the rebel leader against the evil Empire, but who is she? How did she become a rebel leader? What happened to her after the Empire was defeated? This biography answers these questions and more, complete with black-and-white illustrations, timelines, character profiles and more facts than you can shake a light saber at. This is a great resource for introducing Princess Leia to young readers as well as older fans who just want more history of their favorite royal rebel.
