Each case rehearses a specific habit of thinking: noticing an inconsistency, separating a clue from a proof, checking a claim against a physical fact, resisting the first answer that arrives. Those habits transfer well beyond puzzles.
Four investigators work out of a wooden hut at the end of Acorn Lane. Every case is handed to them — and to you.

"There are four detectives in the club. The fifth detective is you."
Nana's chocolate cake sat in a tin with the lid pressed down tight all morning. When the family came in from the garden, the last slice was gone. "Wasn't me," said Uncle Ben, folding his newspaper. "And anyway, that raspberry on the top was going soft. I wouldn't have wanted it." Mira looked at the tin, then at Uncle Ben, then wrote one line in her notebook.
YOUR MISSION: How does Mira know Uncle Ben opened the tin?
HINT
