Read this with my twin brothers and they were highly entertained. I also enjoyed it to be honest.

I'm book talking this on Monday. Here's my book talk. I started with a coworker's base, but it was too short so I added and revised it.
How many of you like graphic novels? That’s great! This is a graphic novel mystery, and I love the author’s name. Who wouldn’t want to read a book by someone who’s last name sounds so close to Stinky?
Settling into a new classroom with teacher Mr. Wolf, Randy, Aziza, and Margot, Hazelwood Elementary students, start a mystery club to investigate three mysteries.
1. What is the fate of a missing teacher?
2. Is the bathroom really haunted?
3. Whatever happened to Aziza’s frisbee?
Mysteries are never easy to solve and birthday parties, surveys, and other students making things difficult.

Another cute book about Mr. Wolf’s class. Mysteries were everywhere in this book, but everyone had fun along the way. The rats caused a lot of trouble, too! On to the next book!

I bought the second in the Mr. Wolf off the back of how much I enjoyed the first. Again, Steinke shares his astute observations of children in the classroom and playground environment and, because of this, these anthropomorphic characters feel more real than many human ones that I have encountered in books.
From those children who do all that they can to not do the work they are set, to those incidental conversations that are overheard, Steinke captures these moments in a way that I haven't encountered before and much of this is down to the medium of the graphic novel where he can play around with an extenuate scenarios.
Although I still prefer that first instalment, there is much to enjoy here. Steinke is gradually revealing the characteristics of the class and building relationships and backstories. I wanted a little more of Mr. Wolf in this but I suspect that the child reader will take more from Abdi's rule-breaking and associate with those awkward moments in the classroom in which 'love' and 'crush' have begun to surface.
