After Professor Sardine ruins their parents' detective agency, Max and Maddy take over to foil the evildoer. In Balloons, they join a hot-air balloon race to stop him from sabotaging the balloons. In Chocolate, they travel to Switzerland and solve a series of bank robberies. Arch black-and-white illustrations accompany the humorously far-fetched stories, told with breezy charm. Review covers these titles: Max & Maddy and the Bursting Balloons Mystery and Max & Maddy and the Chocolate Money Mystery.
