The Mystery of the Missing Bookmark

Emma loved reading more than anything. She would spend hours lost in the pages of her favorite books, discovering new worlds and meeting interesting characters. One day, Emma couldn't find her favorite bookmark, the one with the cute cat design. She searched high and low, but it was nowhere to be found.

"Oh no, I can't lose my bookmark!" Emma cried. "How will I keep my place in my book?" Determined to solve the mystery, Emma began investigating. She asked her parents if they had seen it, but they hadn't. Emma's little brother, Timmy, said he hadn't touched it.

As Emma continued searching, she noticed that her dog, Sparky, was acting a bit strange. He kept sniffing around the bookshelf and wagging his tail. "Sparky, do you know something about my missing bookmark?" Emma asked. Sparky just looked up at her with his big, innocent eyes.

Suddenly, Emma had an idea. She followed Sparky to the backyard, where she found her bookmark buried in the dirt near Sparky's favorite digging spot. "Aha! Sparky must have taken my bookmark and buried it!" Emma exclaimed. Relieved to have solved the mystery, Emma gave Sparky a big hug and a special treat.
