Oak Island Mystery

From the Series Mysteries in History

In 1795, a boy found an odd depression in the ground on Oak Island, Nova Scotia. This would kick off one of the largest treasure hunts in history. Is there anything hidden on the island? If so, what? In Oak Island Mystery, early fluent readers will learn about various attempts to discover treasure on the island, theories about what, if anything, may be hidden there, and skeptics' theories. Readers practice critical thinking skills to draw their own conclusions about what's on the island. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text will engage young readers as they learn about possible explanations.

A Take a Look! infographic offers a visual look at the dig site known as the Money Pit, sidebars present interesting, supplementary information about treasure hunting, and a Quick Facts section recaps events detailed in the book.
