In the nineteenth century, Manhattan's streets were so choked with pedestrians, horses, vehicles, and vendors that a trip from City Hall to Central Park could take hours. Alfred Beach had the perfect solution: build a giant pneumatic tube underneath Broadway from the Battery to Harlem.

Anyone who has ever crammed for a test, capitulated to a grade-grubbing student, or fretted over a child's report card knows that the way we assess student learning in American schools is freighted with unintended consequences.

In Off the Mark, Jack Schneider and Ethan Hutt explain how we got into this predicament, why we remain beholden to outmoded forms of assessment, and what we can do to change course.

But instead of fun and games with the puppy and a glittering night at the ball, a murder takes place—for which Victoria Adler, the Master Sleuths' very own human, is arrested!

Christmas time in Vienna: for the two Master Sleuths, sled dog Athos and cat diva Pearl, it was supposed to be a relaxing vacation in the Austrian capital.
