Book 1 in this fun 7-book series by the creator of the Pearls Before Swine comic strip. Timmy Failure runs his own detective agency, along with his polar bear partner Total. Obstacles to his success are many, including his mother, school and his "idiot" best friend. Fans of Wimpy Kid, Big Nate, even Dork Diaries and Max Crumbly should really love this! It's fun, creative, smart, but light, too. This will make you smile a lot, laugh out loud a few times, and want to read the next book - what more could you ask for? 4 paws!
All things reading by a middle school librarian (and a very smart four-legged fur friend!) and hundreds of awesome students!
