Whats so great about the mystery genre?
- Mysteries draw readers into the story by encouraging readers to figure out a solution from provided clues.
- In mystery series, students will be able to enjoy familiar characters that they've already grown to love.
- Mysteries provide a very predictable story plot, a problem/crime occurs, a "detective" searches for clues to solve the mystery, there is usually some type of plot twist, and near the end of the book the mystery is solved and explained to the reader.
- Another benefit is that nearly all of the time the detectives uses knowledge to solve the problem. This puts an educated person as a role model.
Do you think that mysteries are only for the upper grades?
