"Archer's mix of colorful full-page and spot illustrations aids in decoding more complex sentences. Her expressive, cartoony character design delightfully accentuates comedic moments… A serviceable introduction to sleuthing for more fluent readers who are almost ready for early chapter books." —Kirkus Reviews
