InvestiGators: Take the Plunge (InvestiGators, 2) (udgave 2020)

This is Saturday night live for Kids.
Silly and inventive fast-paced fun, dumb but clever humor.

Our “InvestiGators” are two alligators who work for an organization that sets out to right the wrongs of the world. They have V.E.S.T.s (Very Exciting Spy Technology) and S.U.I.T.s (Special Undercover Investigator Teams). Their mission takes them to a famous bakery, The Batter Down not to be confused with The Batter Up, where the renowned and famous baker has gone missing along with his secret recipes. Then there’s an explosion at the Science Factory—where a giant cake has just been delivered. Makes you wonder how good these InvestiGators really are. They remind me of The Three Stooges.

Readers are going to enjoy the abundance of puns, obvious jokes and toilet humor (literally as they travel the city by flushing themselves through toilets).

There are multiple mysteries to be solved and there is resolution, come the end. The first is our cracked… I mean crack, Investigators, Mango and Brash must find a missing chef. The other is who stole the scientists Thingamabob? Are they connected? Who is the person ordering a cake large enough to hide a dinosaur in (and wears a raincoat on a sunny day)?

Aimed at ages 7 to 10, a younger reader will find the book funny even if they don’t get the jokes.

But for now, I’m going to flip back through the book and smile/laugh at the humor all over again.

There is even a cartoon drawing lesson at the end if you are so inclined. ( )
