4-6American Girl Mysteries series.
In this story set in 1935 Cincinnati, Kit, spunky girl reporter, must solve the problem of how and why her beloved dog, Grace, has gone missing. With the help of her friends, she unravels a plot to steal and sell show dogs. Although series fans will enjoy the mystery, its stock figures and overly complex story line may deter others.
