The Mixed-Up Mask Mystery

When Jill, Gwen, and Fletcher the dog head to the new park for the opening party, they hardly expect to stumble on a mystery. But when someone turns to vandalism to prevent the party from taking place, Fletcher and friends help identify the culprit. Whether portraying human, canine, or rodent, William Dufris and Christine Marshall create a cast of unique and descriptive characters. Particularly memorable are Fletcher, the easygoing, slow-moving hound; Jasper, who acts before he thinks; and a squirrel who means trouble. With impeccable timing and the appropriately exaggerated voices that younger children enjoy, Dufris and Marshall work seamlessly together to create an enjoyable "first reader" mystery. W.L.S.
