Cam, with her photographic memory, once again solves a mystery for her friends. During an exciting game of baseball, the ball is hit far over everyone's heads and they must leave the ball field to find it. Not in a puddle, under a tree, or being used by other kids, the search takes the group on a dog hunt. Natti's colorful illustrations bring life to this book from the "beginning to read" program.
