THE PINCHERS AND THE DOG CHASE
In this slapstick, illustrated crime adventure, the honest Theo Pincher who doesn't fit in to his family of criminals finds a clever way to save the family dog, Sherlock, from the nasty new police officer.
The new police officer Clive is not nice-even the other police are afraid of him. Everything, even the dog, must have a receipt to prove there's no stealing going on. Things without receipts are locked up.
Of course, Theo's family don't have a receipt for anything, especially not their dog Sherlock. When Sherlock is caught, Theo makes a plan to get him back using cooking oil, a dog onesie, and cunning-a plan so good that it reveals Clive's true identity and gives him the comeuppance he deserves. Even Theo's family are impressed.
This criminally funny tale contains a break-in at the candy store, an interrogation, and a super-smart plan-with comical commentary from the dog, who thinks his name is Shuddup Sherlock.
Praise for The Pinchers:
""If you are looking for a goofy, good fun beginning chapter book reader series, pinch this book. Criminally good writing, illustrations, and design.""-Jon Scieszka, US National Ambassador for Young Peoples Literature
