Books for 3-Year-Olds Who Love Adventure and Mystery

At three, children start following simple stories and love guessing what happens next. Picture books with repetition and rhyme keep them turning the pages. These are stories with a mystery to solve or a journey to go on: the kind that end with a child asking for one more chapter.
