What They're Saying
Critics Review
“[W]ith a bit of tongue-in-cheek humor and plenty of puns. The narrative, told through a mix of comic book–style panels and prose, is brought to life with crisp-lined cartoons with mostly pastel tones and a bit of film noir thrown in when the mood is right. An enjoyable homage to the dramatic mystery.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Readers will flock to Curran-Bauer’s lighthearted mystery. A glossary defining detective terms and a fact sheet conclude.” —Publishers Weekly
“[D]elightful comic-book-style drawings and kid-friendly humor.” —Daily Mom
“Full of clues and coos, The Case of the Missing Tarts is a delightful and delicious detective tale!”
–John Patrick Green, author of the InvestiGators series
