The Case of the Autumn Map - Hardcover

by K. D. McIntyre (Author)

An old map. A trail of clues. A mystery hidden in the heart of Lantern Ridge.

When Mallory finds a weathered map tucked inside an old nature book at the Lantern Ridge Library, she knows it is no ordinary drawing. The map is marked with strange symbols - a maple leaf, a lantern, a bridge, a squirrel, and a compass - each one pointing to a different place in town.

With the Fall Reading Festival underway and the park glowing with autumn color, the Lantern Kids set out to follow the trail. But the deeper they search, the more they realize the map may be connected to a group of children from long ago known as the Ridge Rangers.

Who made the map?

Why was it hidden in the library?

And what secret waits at the end of the trail?

Mallory, Tito, Jasmine, and Reynolds must work together to solve the puzzle before the clues are lost to time. Along the way, they discover that some treasures are not made of gold - they are made of friendship, memories, and the places we love.

Perfect for young readers who enjoy cozy mysteries, friendship adventures, small-town secrets, and clue-filled chapter books.

The Case of the Autumn Map is Book Four in The Lantern Ridge Mysteries, a wholesome mystery series for kids ages 7-10.
