ReviewsPauwels' digital forest scenes full of tiny onlookers such as bees, spiders, and worms complement Gallaher's witty wordplay...A cracking whooooo-dunit., "Pauwels' loose-lined pictures feature characters that jump off the page. Kids will laugh at both Whobert's obtuseness and Perry's stealth maneuvers in the background. A little twist at the end puts a bow on the package." -- Ilene Cooper, Gallaher's whodunit is full of puns and misunderstandings that might elicit some giggles from a storytime audience as they talk back to the befuddled detective...[Pauwels'] exasperated characters have comical expressions that tell the real story. The action is established on the title page; readers may want to go back to the beginning to search the cartoonish illustrations for more clues that Whobert missed. VERDICT Recommended for group and one-on-one sharing.
