A mystery storybook you color · Ages 4–8
The Adventures of

Little CadeSterling

Read it! Color it! Solve it!

Join junior reporter Little Cade, Scout the dog and Amelia the cat as they crack cases page by page. Every page has a story to read, a picture to color and a hidden clue to find, in English and in Spanish.

How every case works

Each book is one big mystery told across 40 coloring pages, so kids keep turning the page to find out what happens next.

1

Read it

A longer story under every picture moves the mystery forward, plus a fun fact about the animals, places and things in it.

2

Color it

Big, bold line art on every page, printed one-sided so markers won't bleed through.

3

Solve it

Find the hidden Clue and the trickier Bonus clue, then color in the magnifying glass. Can you crack the case before Cade does?
