‘The Great Puptective’ #1
A set-in-his-ways housecat has his routine upended by an enthusiastic new puppy with a nose for solving mysteries in this first adorable book in a graphic novel chapter book series perfect for fans of InvestiGators and Narwhal and Jelly.

“If you take the buddy cop trope and cross it with the sunshine-grump trope with a heavy dose of Pusheen, you get Truffles and Poppy—i.e., the perfect comedy mystery pairing! Alina Tysoe’s sense of humor just pops right off the page in both her text and illustrations; she just totally nails the kid humor—but it has so much heart, too, with sweet lessons on the value of being kind, thinking from other people’s perspectives, and being open to new ideas. Moreover, her drawing style is so irresistibly cute! Readers young and old will be smiling the whole way through.”
