THE PERPLEXING PINEAPPLE
Ursula Dubosarsky Terry Denton
A delightfully re-imagined Buenos Aires populated by guinea pigs and full of mysteries needing the special attention of the highly strung Coco Carlomagno, the Chief of Police, and his logic-loving cousin, Alberta.
Three adorably funny detective stories and puzzle book for 6 to 8 year olds.
Buenos Aires’ Chief of Police, Coco Carlomagno, is sure his office high in the Obelisco is haunted. Every day at the same time he sees a floating pineapple and every day he hears a terrible noise. What could it mean?
Who could it be? There‘s only one guinea pig Coco can turn to to help him in his hour of need, his logic-loving cousin Alberta. Can Alberta help him unravel the mysteries of the perplexing pineapple?
