Meet Myron: a third-grade detective who loves logic, facts and solving
mysteries. He does not love new things. Unfortunately, everything is new
this year: Myron has a new baby sister, his family has moved across
town, and now he's starting his first day at a new school. But when the
school kitchen is burgled, leaving the morning snacks nowhere to be
found, Myron gets his chance to crack the case with help from his
classmates from Resource Room 15.
Myron's unique perspective from the autism spectrum makes him a
top-notch sleuth. Similarly, the other kids in his resource room
demonstrate creative problem solving and unique talents that come in
handy for the case. Together with his detective partner, the
hyper-energetic Hajrah, and tech-savvy Danielle, known as "Glitch,"
Myron gets to the bottom of the mystery -- all while trying to avoid the
school bully, Sarah "Smasher" McGuintley, who's intent on sabotaging
their efforts.
