Book excerpt: Red Herring Mysteries develops a child's inferential and deductive thinking skills for more effective reading, listening, and logical thinking. The activities also encourage creative brainstorming and flexible thinking. Given a seemingly contradictory statement, children must practice good thinking strategies and formulate astute "yes/no" questions to help them discover the solution to each mystery. Resolutions are often funny, adding appeal to the activities. Teaching Support Includes tips, suggestions, answers, a sample questioning session, and graphic organizer sheets to keep track of deductions.
