Seven Houses Down (Ages 8–12)

A prize-winning bearded dragon has vanished, and ten-year-old Zoe Patterson has exactly five days to find him. Zoe uses a wheelchair and is determined to prove she can handle anything — especially the pet-sitting business she launched with her best friend Oliver. But when their most important client's lizard disappears from his tank overnight, their reputation is on the line. Armed with sharp eyes and sharper instincts, Zoe rolls door-to-door through her neighborhood, uncovering secrets, making unexpected friends, and learning that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is be kind.
