Three silly short novels (Blue Moose [1975], Return of the Moose [1979], and The Moosepire [1986]) are shoehorned into this volume, which includes a short introductory note from "The Moose." They all feature the same main character: an astute blue moose that waits tables, writes a wacky novel, and solves mysteries. The tongue-in-cheek writing style is occasionally supplemented by simple black-and-white illustrations.
