Young mystery fans will be enthralled by this compelling volume of detective fiction that includes both classic and contemporary writers such as Italo Calvino, Agatha Christie, Ellery Queen, Damon Runyon, and Andrew Vachss.
Five tiny dachshund puppies are born one bright May morning, each one short, wiggly, and full of personality. But as they grow, one pup becomes longer…and longer…and longer than all the rest! His name is Pretzel, and soon he’s winning blue ribbons at dog shows and impressing everyone he meets—everyone except Greta, the little dachshund who lives across the street. Greta doesn’t care how long Pretzel is. She just isn’t interested.
