1-3Lu and Clancy series.
Illustrated by
Pat Cupples.
Canine friends Lu and Clancy nab two thieves who are attempting to rob passengers on the Drop of Doom, a scary carnival ride. The sketchy plot acts as a means of introducing five magic tricks performed by various characters. (Instructions for the tricks are included.) With its serviceable illustrations, this picture book is pleasant light fare for readers of short chapter books.
