Scout & Barnaby Series by Becca Wierwille The Scout and Barnaby Mysteries are funny, heartwarming Christian chapter books for kids ages 6-10 by award-winning children's author Becca Wierwille. These lightly illustrated mysteries star a girl named Scout and her unusually perceptive dog, Barnaby. They team up to solve mysteries at a Christian wilderness camp using her love of big words and his super sniffer. The series begins when Barnaby eats Scout's dictionary—and after that, he can understand words! Written as a bridge between chapter books and longer middle grade works, these books combine fun whodunit mystery elements with faith and humor. Books feature a larger font for emerging readers, stay short at approximately 15,000 words, and include illustrations by award-winning illustrator Brad Smith. This campaign is not just for one book, but for the next THREE books in the Scout and Barnaby Mysteries (books 4-6)! Learn more about Becca on her  WEBSITE and follow her on GoodReads and BookBub.
