SuitabookDesigned For Disaster
Leslie McFarlane
- Reading
- Try reading together in short stretches and pause when new interference is mentioned; invite your child to track clues and guesses without needing to solve the mystery before the characters do.
- Themes
- Creative competition and sabotage: After their team is selected in a design competition, Nancy, George and Bess investigate interference. The outline presents both collaborative design and contest disruption, but does not show how the story judges either.
- Worth knowing
- Missing designs and sample pieces, alongside models being tripped up, bring disruption and some suspense to the competition. The extent or consequences of these incidents are not clear.
