The Compass in the Attic (Ages 8–12)

Hugo Campbell has never been good at reading — letters jumble and twist no matter how hard he tries. So when his mom deploys overseas and he's sent to live with his grandmother in the old town of Farnham, he feels more lost than ever. But a hand-drawn treasure map hidden in the attic changes everything. With no words to decode, only pictures and arrows, Hugo might finally have an adventure built for the way his brain works. The only problem? The trail his mom started twenty years ago may have gone cold.
