Summary: Nate is swimming in the ocean one day when his friend Louis tells him that his beach bag with is clothes in it is missing. Nate investigates and talks to people to see if they have seen it. Louis's beachball was there but not the bag. Then Nate realizes that he hasn't looked in the water so he swims around and doesn't find it. Nate thinks that he can't solve it because he has no clues. Then he realizes that there is no imprint in the sand where Louis said his bad was. He realizes that Louis got confused and his bag is farther up the coast and someone just took his beach ball.
Reaction: I have always love Nate-The Great books. I think they are so clever and fun to read about.
Problem: Someone has stole Louis's bag at the beach.
Recommendation: I would recommend this book. Especially if you have young kids who like mysteries. This is a great book to start out. The author uses simple words that young kids can understand
