Kindergarten-Grade 2-- Aunt Eater, introduced in Aunt Eater Loves a Mystery (HarperCollins, 1987), returns. Would-be sleuths can try to solve the mysterious disappearances of a ferry captain, a diamond ring, and a dinosaur bone, and determine the identity of a strange woman. Cushman enhances his text with numerous watercolor illustrations that assist readers with visual clues. Children will appreciate Aunt Eater's excitement when she rings the ferry's ``All Ashore'' bell and meets her favorite author. Another good addition to the series. --Gale W.
