The Mystery of the Missing Marker • Learn To Be

It was a sunny day at Crescent Elementary, and Michael and Neeraj were excited for their next adventure. The two friends loved solving mysteries around their town in Anaheim.

One day, their teacher, Ms. Kim, couldn't find her favorite red marker. "Who could have taken it?" she wondered. Michael and Neeraj decided to investigate.

They searched the classroom, looking under desks and behind books. But the marker was nowhere to be found. "This is a real mystery!" said Neeraj.

The boys questioned their classmates, but no one knew where the marker had gone. They even asked the janitor, Mr. Singh, if he had seen it. But he shook his head, just as puzzled as they were.

Suddenly, Michael had an idea. "Let's retrace our steps and see if we can find any clues!" The friends searched the hallways and the playground, looking for any sign of the missing marker.

Finally, they spotted something red peeking out from under a bush. "There it is!" they exclaimed. The mystery was solved, and Ms. Kim was so happy to have her marker back.
