Investigators: The Plot Chickens - by John Patrick Green (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

With more than five million copies in print, the multiple-time New York Times-bestselling sewer-surfing super-sleuths Mango and Brash are back in the tenth volume of the mega-smash-hit InvestiGators series!

As the Science Factory scientists try to give Daryl a solid bod, things go horribly wrong! Now we are sometime in the future. The City has been destroyed. S.U.I.T. is no more. High above, a new, but familiar villain surveys his handiwork. He thinks he's saving us from ourselves--but who will save us from him? Maybe Brash can talk his old friend down. If not, it's up to Dr. Doodledoo to turn back time. Tick-toc. Bawk. Bawk.

Review Quotes

Investigators:

"...has heaping helpings of surreal alligator action and wordplay gags to keep new readers bent on solving the mystery." --The New York Times

"With its rampant good-natured goofiness and its unrelenting fizz and pep, this feels like a sugar rush manifested as a graphic novel. Silly and inventive fast-paced fun." --Kirkus

"In high-intensity colors, straightforward panel artwork by Green (Hippopot-a-mister) offers plenty of slapstick gags to Brash and Mango's tale. Fast-paced fun for the bad pun and dorky joke crowd." --Publisher's Weekly

"Like the heroes of Dav Pilkey's "Dog Man" or "Captain Underpants," the Investigators are bound to resonate with kids." --School Library Journal: XpressReviews
