Lyle, nicknamed "Mudshark" for his rapid reflexes, is a careful observer and astute problem-solver--the "go-to guy" for trouble. He faces competition after a hyper-vigilant parrot moves into the school library. When chalkboard erasers start disappearing en masse, it's up to Mudshark to solve the mystery before the bird does. Sharp humor and quirky characters will keep readers entertained.
