Kid Detective Violet Archer and her dog Baba aren't new to solving mysteries. But when the duo heads to Violet's Grandparents’ house for the weekend, they find themselves caught in a plot twisting puzzle of a case. It all starts with unexplained noises in the night. Then, Baba's favorite chew toy (The Purple Martin) goes MISSING! It's a race against time to rescue "Marty" before the weekend is over, and not everything at this house is as it seems…
“Raises the bar for what a children's story can be. This book manages to intimately capture the experience of being a kid - both the magic and the hard parts.”
- Karly Majhanovich BCBA, Special Educator, Mom of Three -
"Finally a great story that doesn't shortchange kids on illustrations!
- Jennifer Hovermale Children’s Reading Specialist, Mom -
Series Description:
Kid Detective Violet Archer and her Dog/Partner Baba are on the case - navigating a complicated world of long-held secrets, baffling clues, and crafty Tallies (pronounced TALL-ees - that’s what Violet calls grown-ups) in their search for the truth. It ain’t easy being a kid (or a small dog), but Violet and Baba are brave, resourceful, and clever enough to handle whatever comes their way.
Written by Emmy-Nominated Director and Screenwriter Matt Naylor, The Violet Archer series isn’t quite like anything else. These are stunningly-written chapter books featuring color pictures on every page. Having read to his daughters for years, Naylor always felt that kids are ready for more sophisticated stories before they’re ready to let go of pictures. Violet Archer fills that gap with stories that are as rich in wisdom and big kid emotions as they are in mystery and fun - and the clues to solve the case are hidden throughout in both the text and illustrations.
Told entirely from Violet’s perspective (and drawing on the hard-boiled first person narration of classic film noir), The Violet Archer series embodies the internal life of a kid in a way that few other stories can. Apologies to bedtime, but these are some of those rare books that parents won’t want to put down any more than their kids do.
