Benny on the case / Wesley King.

King, Wesley, (author.).

Summary:

Benny, a boy with Mosaic Down syndrome, lives in a retirement home run by his mother and has an eighty-six-year-old best friend, Mr. Tom. When he moves to a mainstream classroom, his classmates tease him for his differences, except for Salma, a new girl who is tech-savvy, speaks Arabic, and plays basketball. When several residents of the retirement home, including Salma's grandmother, are robbed, Benny and Salma team up to catch the thief. With time running out and an inspector threatening to shut down the home, they must solve the case while also working on a class assignment with their bullies. Can Benny save his home and stand up to the bullies?
