"Detectives Milo and Jazz return in this eighth entry in the Milo and Jazz Mysteries. Milo discovers a diamond necklace in his classroom desk. Was it stolen in a recent jewelry-store burglary and could Milo's teacher be involved? Sprightly black-and-white, pen-and-ink spot illustrations enliven the brief chapters, which are filled with earnest, clever kids being funny—and, more importantly, smart. As always, the book ends with some of the most enjoyable stuff of all: Super Sleuthing Strategies, a series of highly enjoyable brain teasers." --Booklist
