This is an adorable series with two owls detectives who love solving mysteries. Wallace and Grace show us how to take notes with bullet points, how to ask questions and how to cooperate as they help their rabbit friend find the ghost in the garden. The illustrations are wonderful and help tell. the story for those non-readers enjoying the book. Thank you to NetGalley and Bloomsbury for sending me the digital copy.

Wallace and Grace are at the top of my list for fun books to recommend to kids. Perfect for kids branching into chapter books. Well defined character traits if that's the work your kids are doing in workshop and all around cute story. I don't see a 1 on the spine, but I'm hopeful there will be more Wallace and Grace.

As a beginning reader, this book is by nature pretty basic. Even so, its a pretty solid mystery. Clues are easy to follow but not completely obvious. Characters have clear personality differences and distinct voices. And the illustrations cleanly support the text. A solid choice for young readers.

A great introduction to the mystery genre for newly independent readers. Wallace and Grace balance cute with savvy to keep young readers interested in their investigation.

This is an adorable mystery for beginning readers. There's a puzzle to solved and an appropriate amount of spookiness for young children. Lovely illustrations. I definitely hope to see more in this series!

This is a cute, new detective series about two owls who solve cases with the same panache as Nate the Great. It's an early reader style text, nicely illustrated, with simple friendly mysteries to solve. In this one, a rabbit believes that the garden that he frequents is haunted. With some simple deductive work on the part of Wallace and Grace, they soon discover that his fears are nothing more than that, and they make some new friends along the way. The story is great for very young readers. I look forward to adding it to my school's collection. New mystery series are always welcome additions.
