The Case of the Missing Donut























A young sheriff and his dog deputy have been given the task of bringing home a dozen donuts from the local bakery.  Please understand that the sheriff really loves donuts -- and when one powdered donut gets squished in the box, he can't resist eating it.  But then somehow, everyone knows he has eaten the donut -- and they look at him funny -- and ask snarky questions (like "how was that donut?") It is only when they get home, and look in a mirror that the case is solved. This humorous tale is written by Allison McGhee, and has spot-on illustrations by Isabel Roxas.  It will be great fun to share with young children, and early readers will enjoy the mystery too.
