Description

Jack is not impressed when he meets Inspector Jacques, a French dog who tries to solve human crimes. The coauthor is Sally Odgers. Book #10

Quick Summary

Jack gets quite a surprise when he meets Inspector Jacques a French dog who's absolutely convinced he can solve human crimes, and Jack isn't sure what to think about this four-legged detective. The humor comes from watching this goofy canine try to make sense of human behavior while somehow managing to stumble onto the right answers anyway. This is a quick, light read that's perfect for kids who like their mysteries with a big dose of silliness, and the short chapters make it especially good for newly independent readers who want something fun but not too challenging. If your kid enjoys the "Jigsaw Jones" books but wants something with more animal charm and wackiness, this fits that spot nicely. Parents can feel good about this one too it's wholesome, funny, and gives kids a little taste of French culture without it ever feeling like a lesson.
