Review: Oh my goodness this book is such a fun read! It’s great for younger kids and it’s so clever with the little mysteries!

This book is also hilarious and it has a great conclusion to it as well.
Verdict: Definitely a must read for younger mystery lovers!

Delightful and sweet! Could be nice for a mystery unit, and really nice level for younger humans.
kmlaratta's review against another edition
A humorous, three-part story about crime fighting pigeons. This would be a great book to transition from graphic novels.

This was a quick, silly read that I can see kids enjoying when they want something light.
