Book 1 in the Christie and Agatha' s Detective Agency series!"Whoever gave you that sandwich did it deliberately. They wanted to sabotage Fleming' s research. "When Agatha accidentally eats a major scientific discovery (hidden in a sandwich!), it' s a race against time for twins Agatha and Christie to find out who' s trying to ruin physician Sir Alexander Fleming' s reputation. About the Christie and Agatha' s Detective Agency series: It' s not easy growing up in the 1920s. While Christie can usually be found up a tree or trying a spot of amateur engineering, her shy twin Agatha buries her nose in books and dreams of being a writer. The pair couldn' t be more different. But when a scientific discovery goes missing, they find that together they make a winning combination and Christie and Agatha' s Detective Agency is born. Join the twin detectives as they solve thrilling mysteries all over the world!
Mixing fact and fiction this is a super story to introduce kids to the Detective genre. It' s very easy to read and contains enough interest to keep kids attention without swamping them with difficult language or unnecessary detail. Although the protagonists are both female this book would clearly appeal to both boys and girls. The fast-paced, but not scary, storyline would make a great bedtime read for a child wanting the next stage on from a picture book. -- Kate, Musings and Muddles
