First Clues: Mysteries for Kids.

Fingerprint clue Thank you for visiting First Clue Mysteries, your source for mystery books for children and young adults.

We've added a page of First Clues Reviews, reviews of books featured on this site written by students giving their unique perspective on the book they read.

Select your favorite mystery series from the list on the left. We've also included categories of mini mysteries and minute mysteries, both of which are a terrific way to introduce your child to the world of mystery books. In addition, we have links to our partner site, Games of Mystery, which has a large number of mystery parties available for kids and teens.

To help you decide which mystery series may be most appropriate for your child, we've sorted our mysteries by broad age ranges: New Sleuths (ages 4 to 6), Future Sleuths (ages 7 to 10), Sleuths in Training (ages 10 to 12), and Apprentice Sleuths (ages 13 and older).
