Sarah Horne.
Nana isn't ready for the old folks' home. Instead, she tries out different jobs (hockey referee, backhoe driver) until landing, happily, on detective. Nana's grandchildren Eufala and Bog are more interested in making mischief than solving crime until they help her unravel a mystery. The many quirky text asides and black-and-white illustrations add to an already funny and kid-friendly premise.
