Barking Up the Wrong Tree: Stick and Fetch Investigate

Description

Sally loves nothing more than investigating a good mystery - and her shaggy French poodle Fetch loves nothing more than to be at her side when she does. There's just one small problem: they always gets the wrong end of the stick! The hapless pair remain undeterred, however, dashing from one crime scene to another on their bicycle, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake ... yet always emerging blissfully unaware. A fun, madcap trio of stories featuring two loveable heroes and a LOT of hair.
