Some ideas -

The blossoming universe of Violet Diamond - Brenda Woods
Wedgie & Gizmo - Suzanne Selfors
Jada Jones series - Kelly Starling Lyons (might be a bit easy)
Extra Credit - Andrew Clements

Some of the Nutmeg Nominees would also work - Cody and the Mysteries of the
Universe and A Handful of Stars
