Interspersed throughout Sharmat's trademark clipped prose and deadpan humor are hints and questions designed to draw budding mystery fans into Nate the Great's latest case. After Nate--and readers--have tracked down Annie's missing dog, the boy detective invites readers to a Detective Day party and shares sleuthing tips and recipes for invisible ink and latkes. Simont's humorous watercolors enhance the chapter-book mystery.
