Editorial Review
Meyers invests all her characters with lots of personality... Beginning readers will like the spacious typeset and thought bubbles that clue readers in to King's thinking. This is a great story to help emerging readers strengthen their comprehension skills, and caregivers can easily discuss what young readers already know and what they are discovering along the way to piece together for a final conclusion... Entertaining reading for the newest generation of detectives. --Kirkus Reviews
