Hi Esti, As I recall, the Flat Stanley books off a problem and solution in each chapter. I don't remember what the level of these books are but you might check them out.

HI All, I'm looking to teach my fourth grade students to summarize by identifying problems and solutions in a text. I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a chapter book where in each chapter the main character has a problem and solution that s/he needs to solve. I find that while most books have a problem and solution, they are presented across chapters. They are rarely embedded within a chapter. So far, I found this style in Wayside books. The problem with these books is that when I level them, they are really on a very low reading level....according to Lexile, they are a 440 range book (essentially end first grade and and beginning second.....). Encyclopedia Brown series don't really have the solutions embedded in the chapters....... Any suggestions???? I'm having a really tough time here...... Thanks!
