Casey’s Cases: The Mysterious New Girl is the first of two graphic novels for kids by Kay Healy and published by Neal Porter Books/Holiday House.

Eleven-year-old Casey is a budding detective. No mystery is too big or too small, but most of her cases are pretty small...

Join Casey as she wards off the taunts of mean girl Dina, rummages through trash with the new girl Jan, tries to win the favor of her crush AJ, helps a lost cat she finds on her doorstep, and stumbles through many more everyday adventures in the life of a comical fifth grader.

Case closed: Casey's Cases is a laugh-out-loud debut from author/illustrator Kay Healy.

A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection
