Perfect for newly independent or reluctant readers, the book has black and white illustrations, short chapters and a font developed specifically for dyslexic readers. Henry

“Hank” Zipzer doesn’t try to be funny, but he somehow always makes the kids in his class laugh. He’s pretty bad at memorising stuff, and spelling is his worst subject.

Smashie McPerter and the Mystery of Room 11

By N. Griffin Illustrated by Kate Hindley

Who stole the hamster from Room 11?

The day the hamster disappeared from Smashie McPerter’s class began like any other day. Well, except for the fact that

the teacher was out sick and Smashie’s class was stuck with Mr. Carper, the worst substitute in the world. And except for

the mysterious business with the glue. As the peaceable and productive days of the class of Room 11 turn into

paranoia-fueled chaos, as natural suspects produce natural alibis and motives remain unmotivated, Smashie and her best friend, Dontel, are forced to the limits of their parlor-

room detecting to set things right.
