About the Book The Wright 3

In The Wright 3, Blue Balliett crafts a captivating children’s mystery that follows the sleuthing endeavors of three sixth-graders, Petra, Calder, and Calder’s longtime friend, Tommy. They find themselves entangled in a labyrinth of enigmas and cryptic codes while striving to preserve the architectural masterpiece, Frank Lloyd Wright’s Robie House, from being disassembled.

The narrative kicks off with Tommy’s return to Chicago, where he struggles with feelings of exclusion from the renown Petra and Calder have acquired from their prior exploits. The revelation of the Robie House’s impending demolition, equated by the trio to an act of violence, heightens the tension among them. A series of peculiar incidents, including a craftsman’s fall and Tommy’s discovery of an mysterious jade fish, draws the youngsters further into the depths of the mystery.

Leveraging their distinct talents—Petra’s literary affinity, Calder’s knack for mathematics, and Tommy’s flair for unearthing treasures—they endeavor to unravel a secret message left by Wright himself. Their quest is laden with peril, deceit, and unexpected twists as they maneuver through intricate interpersonal dynamics and the complex intentions of those involved with the Robie House.

Balliett’s novel is replete with concealed illustrations and subtexts, beckoning readers to actively engage with the narrative. It weaves together elements of reality and creativity, prompting young minds to critically analyze and look beyond the surface as they assemble the puzzle pieces. The story champions the essence of collaboration and determination, while the shifting points of view poignantly capture the protagonists’ trials and triumphs, offering readers an engrossing literary journey.
