Description

Trying to communicate with his human owner (and detective partner) can be frustrating for King the golden retriever as he uncovers clues in a missing dog case.

Quick Summary

King the golden retriever uses his doggy instincts to crack the case while his human partner Kayla thinks she's the real detective, and the back-and-forth between what King knows and what humans understand is absolutely hilarious. Kids will grin from ear to ear as King picks up on crucial clues through smells and sounds that humans completely miss, all while trying desperately to get Kayla to pay attention in the most adorable, tongue-hanging-out way possible. If your kid loves the "Nate the Great" series or any silly animal mysteries, they'll absolutely adore this doggy duo. This is the perfect pick for kids in kindergarten through third grade who are ready to dive into their first chapter book mysteries.
