- Book 1 of 5: Detective Gordon
An award-winning illustrated detective story set in a friendly forest and first in the acclaimed series for beginning readers.
Detective Gordon―a mystery-solving toad who loves cake―has his very first case. Someone’s stealing nuts from the forest, and it’s up to Detective Gordon to catch the thief! Unfortunately, solving this crime means standing in the snow and waiting for a long time... If only he had an assistant―someone small, fast, and clever―to help solve this terrible case. Then Detective Gordon would be able to go back to doing what he’s best at: thinking, eating cakes, drinking tea, and stamping important papers.
A perfect first chapter book for children aged five and up by one of Sweden’s top children’s writers. This much-loved junior fiction series is illustrated in full color throughout and packed full of character and humor. Winner of multiple awards and accolades, Detective Gordon is a fun whodunnit mystery series to read alone or aloud.
Translated from the Swedish edition by Julia Marshall.
