Detective Gordon: The First Case

Image result for detective gordon the first case 

This was a cute little mystery (96 p) about a squirrel whose nuts were stolen.  Detective Gordon (a toad) is on the case and receives help from a tiny new apprentice Buffy.  The story is quite simple and while it is a cute mystery it is probably too simple for the MSBA list.  I do think my early readers - 2nd and 3rd graders would enjoy it and I think it would make a cute read aloud.  Detective Gordon has a cute way with words and his relationship with Buffy is nice.
