Natalie and Annie, nicknamed Elvis and Olive, are best friends. When Natalie decides to run for school secretary, she finds out she has to do a Helping Hands Project in order to run. The girls come up with the idea to start their own detective agency where they don't charge any money.
The campaign running is off to a rocky start, however, when the Principal says that their project isn't good enough. Between having to come up with a campaign slogan and a significant enough service project, Natalie and Annie start feeling the stress. Annie, however, starts feeling it worse when she starts questioning why her mother abandoned her.
Will Annie find a way to contact her mother? Will the girls solve an important enough mystery so that Annie can run for secretary?
A fun, humorous story about two girls and their adventures. The characters are entertaining and easy to relate to. The plot moves at a slower pace and isn't strictly a mystery story, but the author does a good job of keeping the reader's attention and interest. This book would be a good way to introduce detective stories or friendship in literature to young readers.
Readers who like realistic fiction and mystery stories will enjoy reading SUPER DETECTIVES.
