We're reissuing this beloved chapter book mystery series from James Preller with a fresh package and classic illustrations from R. W. Alley. A brand new hardcover original, Jigsaw Jones and the Case of the Hat Burglar, will also be publishing alongside these originals in Spring 2019. Featuring friendship, school, family, and a diverse community, these early illustrated chapter books are now available for a new generation of young readers.

ReviewsJigsaw Jones and the Case from Outer Space: "Fans . . . can count on the series for likable characters and a bit of a challenge here and there. . . . With short sentences, bits of humor, and engaging illustrations, the latest early chapter book in Preller's long-running Jigsaw Jones Mystery series has plenty of appeal for young independent readers." --Booklist "Those who enjoy Preller's works for younger readers will welcome the return of Jigsaw Jones. Highly recommended, especially for devotees of series such as David A.
