Cute graphic novel for my son (10 yrs old). He really enjoyed it, there were a ton of jokes that I laughed at. We have the rest in the series too.

Funny book, wasn't expecting as many storylines and depth for a kids book. Art is really nice too.

Thanks to School Library Journal for a review copy of this book.

This adorable graphic novel about two alligator friends who are detectives features Mango and Brash and not one but two cases to solve. Mango and Brash are going undercover, and won’t stop until they’ve cracked the case of the Chef Gustavo of bakery Batter Down, who has gone missing. They must also protect his secret recipes. Meanwhile, there was an explosion at the Science Factory that the InvestiGators have to figure out as well. Kids will love this team of alligator detectives and eat this book up!

I hopped into this story at the wrong book so it was finally nice to gave some backstory on all of the adorBle funky characters.

Like Dog Man but with smarter jokes and warmer characters. Myself and both the kids really enjoyed it.

I enjoyed the puns throughout this story, I'm not sure that kids would really understand them though.
