Rachel Selle writes history-filled mystery stories set in Europe. A teacher at a German elementary school by day, and author by night, she finds inspiration in her travels through Europe.

"Growing up in Alaska, I didn’t have the opportunity to travel to faraway places. I wrote The European Adventures for children who want to experience new cultures and delve into a mystery at the same time."

Each installment explores its host country's art, history, food, culture, and language. Stay tuned for the group’s next adventure in France.
