Detective Stanley and the Green Thumbed Thief cover

A clever, funny comic for young readers about a dog detective and his latest case in the Narlybone Botanical Gardens

It's a botanical burglary! Who is swiping precious and priceless plants from the Narlybone Gardens? Barnaby Moss, Head of Horticulture is flummoxed. Somebody is thieving very rare specimens from the wintergarden and they are worth a lot of money! The latest Detective Stanley mystery is curlier than a vine and full of twisty secrets. Join Detective Stanley and his pal, Parker Pine, to catch the botanical bandit! A perfect comic for young readers moving on from picture books, children who love comics, or anyone who likes a good mystery!

The mystery unfolds through detailed illustrations rather than long text, inviting inquisitive 5-9 year olds to spot evidence on every page. Designed for emerging readers, it cleverly bridges picture books and comics while focusing on careful retrieval, inference and problem solving. Highly Recommended. -- Tom Tolkien * School Reading List Review *
