Why read it?
1 author picked Rockstar Detectives as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I found this comedy mystery great fun, and was pleased to see that it includes a character who is a wheelchair user. This is great because disabled children deserve to see themselves represented more in children’s literature.
This story, written by comedian Adam Hills, introduces twelve-year-old Charley, a singing sensation, and her friend George, a wannabe comedian, who are on tour together.

From Tessa's list on children’s detective stories for middle grade readers.
