Operation Cat Tale (Childhood Legends)

To Catch A Thief...

Jefferson City is a sleepy town and a well-kept secret until oil is discovered on the outskirts. Now it seems to attract everyone--and not all are people I want where I live.

My nickname is Genius and together with my friends, the Are you One Toos (R*U*1*2s), we've taken it upon ourselves to rid our town of a daring and brazen burglar dubbed The Cat. You never know what can happen in Jefferson City.

I have a feeling Operation Cat Tale is only just the beginning of our adventures.
