    About Nate the Great and the Pillowcase

    Join the world’s greatest detective, Nate the Great, as he solves the mystery of the missing pillowcase! Perfect for beginning readers and the Common Core, this long-running chapter book series will encourage children to problem-solve with Nate, using logical thinking to solve mysteries!  

    CAN NATE SOLVE THE CASE BEFORE THE SUN COMES UP?
     
    It’s two o’clock in the morning when the telephone rings and Nate the Great learns that Rosamond’s pillowcase is missing. Outside, it is damp, dark, and dreary, but a good (yawning) sleuth knows that the hunt must go on. Can Nate find the missing case before his bedroom slippers wear out?
