Is there a bear loose in the woods by Jigsaw Jones' town? For once this second-grade detective and his partner Mila Yeh might be out of their depth! One way or another, these too young sleuths will get to the bottom of who, or what, is growling and snapping in those woods.

We're reissuing this beloved chapter book mystery series from James Preller with a fresh package and classic illustrations from R. W. Alley. A brand new hardcover original, Jigsaw Jones and the Case of the Hat Burglar, will also be publishing alongside these originals in Spring 2019.

Featuring friendship, school, family, and a diverse community, these early illustrated chapter books are now available for a new generation of young readers.

Industry Reviews

Jigsaw Jones and the Case from Outer Space:

"Fans . . . can count on the series for likable characters and a bit of a challenge here and there. . . . With short sentences, bits of humor, and engaging illustrations, the latest early chapter book in Preller's long-running Jigsaw Jones Mystery series has plenty of appeal for young independent readers." --Booklist

"Those who enjoy Preller's works for younger readers will welcome the return of Jigsaw Jones. Highly recommended, especially for devotees of series such as David A. Adler's "Cam Jansen," Ron Roy's "A to Z Mysteries" and "Calendar Mysteries," and, of course, Marjorie Weinman Sharmat's "Nate the Great." --School Library Journal
