4-6CrimeBiters! series.
Illustrated by
Adam Stower.
In book three, the CrimeBiters, including narrator Jimmy and his "superhero" dog Abby, face their toughest challenge yet when new kitten Purrkins joins their ranks. The gang must stop their cat-and-dog fighting to together identify a school-exam thief and save their local animal shelter from closing. Brief chapters filled with humorous observations, buoyant dialogue, and black-and-white illustrations will appeal to young middle graders.
