L’investigatto e lo scassinatoro. L’investigatto

“Perlage”, Mr Topaz’s jewellery shop, has been broken into. Someone opened the safe, emptying it. Detecticat is called to investigate. Only in the end does he arrive at the culprits: the infamous Mr Bull and the unsuspected Mr Mole. Case closed.

 

• Stories to make you laugh.

 

• Small cases to solve with clues that are always evident to the readers, but not initially to the protagonist.

 

• New format for early readers: short lines of text to move the narrative forwards, speech bubbles for the dialogue between the characters.
