1-3Ready-for-Chapters: A Fletcher Mystery series.
Illustrated by
Mordicai Gerstein.
When preparations for a masked ball to celebrate the opening of a new park are sabotaged (masks made by kids for their pets are chewed up, a fire is set, the electricity is shut off), it's up to sleuthing basset hound Fletcher to solve the mystery. Levy's simple story, though a bit thin, is fast paced and humorous with a distinct cast of likable characters and illustrated with black-and-white pictures.
