Insect Inspectors: Racetrack Robbery - by Tim McKeon (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Seasoned detective Addy and her bumbling partner, Junior Inspector Dung, are headed to the buzz-worthy Fast Flier Race in this next installment of the hilarious chapter book series--perfect for fans of The Bad Guys!

At any given time, there are 10,000,000,000,000,000,000 insects alive in the world. These are their stories...

It's time for the Fast Flier Race, a thrilling competition in which winged insects race to win a fancy gold trophy covered in jewels.

When Sarge Ant asks Inspectors Addy and Dung to attend the race, Dung is thrilled. He's a Fast Flier superfan! Except, Sarge says, they aren't going to watch. They are going because someone stole the trophy! If Addy and Dung can't find it before the race starts, the insect fans will turn into an angry swarm and destroy Insect City!

It's a race against time as the inspectors search for clues and interview silly suspects like a stinkbug security guard and Dung's hero, a dragonfly racer named Blue Dasher.
