They need SCIENCE! Meet Mia, a curious young detective who loves asking questions, following clues, and discovering how the world really works.

 When Mia notices something strange happening to the shadows around town, she knows there must be an explanation.

Armed with her flashlight, notebook, sharp eyes, and growing love of science, Mia begins investigating. By observing carefully, experimenting with light, changing angles, testing ideas, and recording what she discovers, Mia learns that even the strangest mystery can have a fascinating scientific explanation.

 The book explores how the position and angle of a light source can change the size and shape of shadows. But Mia's discoveries don't stop there. From the town park to a mysterious museum exhibit and even the shadows inside a cave, every new clue gives this junior detective another reason to investigate.
