Illustrated by
Jacqui Lee.
Told in six chapters, this light, easy mystery will boost new readers' confidence and tickle their funny bones. Detective Murilla Gorilla lives in an African rainforest. Her investigative skills are hit or miss, allowing readers to laugh along with Okapi and to help solve the mystery of who put a hole in Okapi's hammock. Smart word choice and layout add to this accessible book's appeal.
