The Chasing Paper Caper (Carmen Sandiego Graphic Novels), written by Clarion Books, reviewed by Terry Wahrman

Summary:  Carmen Sandiego and her online companion, Player, take off to Mumbai, India in search of the famous Magna Carta.  VILE has plans to steal it from the government.  Carmen arrives just in time to confront and scuffle with Paperstar, a student she met at VILE her 2nd year, in the building.  Paperstar gets away with the Magna Carta and Carmen is off on a chase to recover the document.  Following close behind and catching up with the pair are Inspector Devineaux and agent Argent.  Lots of twists and turns with the Magna Carta falling into several hands.

Straight Talk for Librarians:  Definitely a fun way to learn about different cities and cultures around the world.  Carmen is in Mumbai, India this time.  Interesting facts about the Magna Carta and Mumbai are included in the story and at the end of the book.  Paperstars’ talent is making origami.  She makes them so accurate and tight that her stars can cut through stone.  Great way to introduce origami and japanese art into a classroom.  Adventure seekers will love following along. Highly recommended.
