This is the first book in the InvestiGators series that I have read. It tells of two fun and silly alligators who are trying to solve the mystery of who stole the art from the museum.
I am a second grade teacher and I can confidently say that my students would love this book. The humor and puns make it even better. Adults reading this book with their child will also appreciate some of the humor that may go above the child's head!
There is what my class calls "bathroom" humor in this book. But it's not too over the top or done in a way that my students may end up repeating it.
This would be a great book for any reader both confident and struggling who enjoys a silly mystery.

The InvestiGators couldn't be more in demand in my Media Center and this latest addition will be right up there with the rest. I couldn't go without laughing on every single page. The jokes, the puns, the humor is hysterical for all ages.
The plot involves another fast-paced, fun adventure of Mango and Brash who serve as undercover agents and unravel the mystery of stolen museum paintings. The illustrations are vivid, colorful and enticing. The dialogue is right on in describing the actions of the InvestiGators. The author does a superb job of appealing to all reading levels. Can't wait for this one to on our shelves!
