Dominik Mikulaschek: The Mystery of the Gym, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Something is off at Ruleberg Elementary School-and it starts in the one place that's supposed to be loud, fast, and fun: the gym.

Overnight, new strict signs appear that ban laughing, running freely, and pretty much anything that makes PE enjoyable. Teachers suddenly act like invisible referees are watching every step, and students whisper about a strange new "order" taking over the court. Then it happens: the basketball cart disappears, and the court lines shift while everyone is asleep. No one can explain it. And no one seems willing to ask too many questions.

That's when the kid detectives arrive.

Meet Milo, Fina, and Tarik "Turbo"-three sharp-minded friends who can't ignore a mystery, especially when rules stop making sense. Armed with a notebook, quick thinking, and the kind of curiosity adults always underestimate, they begin investigating the gym's strangest secrets. What they find isn't just one missing cart-it's a trail of hidden clues, puzzling rules, and suspicious "accidents" that point to something bigger.

Soon, their case leads them through secret passages, shadowy storage rooms, and unexpected corners of the school where the truth is carefully tucked away. With every new discovery, the mystery gets funnier, creepier, and more exciting-until Milo, Fina, and Turbo realize the gym isn't just being controlled... it's being tested.

Packed with humor, suspense, teamwork, and clever puzzles, this is the perfect kids mystery chapter book for readers who love:
