Flavia DeLuce

Note: While these are under mysteries, the exact genre is hard for me to pinpoint.  They remind me very much of Nancy Drew, except Flavia (our detective) is only about 11 yrs old.  And, she has a supremely sophisticated vocabulary.  I am putting her with the cozies because I think that’s the best fit.
