Mystery Books for 8 year old

My daughter loves mysteries! I feel like we have checked out every A to Z mystery our library has. We’ve read Boxcar Children, and I just got her started on Encyclopedia Brown. Nancy Drew and the Clue Crew, looping in magic Treehouse as a sort of mystery.

We’ve tried the old school Nancy Drew and the language was too old fashioned. She won’t touch Babysitters Club (breaks my millennial heart). For night times when Mom reads she likes Trixie Belden, but finds it challenging on her own.

Any other fun series we don’t know about?

Editing to add: OMG you all are wonderful, thank you for all of these recommendations!!

Marker on Wooden Table

Hi All- Grandma came to hang out, and brought some sort of markers with her. They were metallic, and my kiddos are so used to my strict Crayola rules they weren’t very careful.

I’ve used some regular wood cleaners, which got the metallic out, but don’t want to do too much more in case I damage the table. Any ideas on how else I could get the remaining stains out, or do we just have a party table now?
