One day Scout hears a persistent knocking at his door, but when he goes to see who it is, no one is there. Daisy also noticed a knocking sound in the forest when she was walking to Scout's place.

"A most charming and instructive collection of nature mystery books which encourages children to head outside and discover their natural world."
-- Children's Book News

Adapted from the award-winning TV show Scout and the Gumboot Kids, this outstanding series of nature mystery books celebrates the joy and wonder of mindfully exploring the natural world.

Perfect for inquisitive young minds, The Gumboot Kids' nature mysteries feature beloved characters, Scout and Daisy, working through a series of clues in order to crack the case. In each mystery, Scout and Daisy confirm their findings with a trip to the library where they verify the evidence they've gathered in nature and solve the mystery before having a mindful moment to reflect on their journey.

With beautifully rendered and painstakingly detailed art, Scout and Daisy's adventures are a visual feast that will have kids poring over the pages time and time again.

Each book concludes with two pages of field notes on the mystery subject as well as a nature craft inspired by the mystery for kids to try at home.
