Cam Jansen has a great time looking for shells on the beach with her friend Eric and her aunt Molly. But when they're done, Cam's mother is nowhere in sight! She was just sitting under a red umbrella, so how could she have disappeared? With a click, Cam puts her photographic memory to work to find her mom.
"The story will make new readers look closely at the detail and think about the action and about being lost and found; it's just scary enough to keep kids on edge." -Booklist
