Homer on the Case
by Henry Cole
Homer, a racing pigeon, and his friend Otto are happy just as they are in their days and hobbies – Homer even teaches himself to read! But life gets even better when on a walk through the park they meet Lulu (a very pretty parrot) and her friend Charlotte. There is no time to relax, though, because there are thieves in town and bright shiny objects are going missing. Hair clips, silver cups, gems and jewels disappear. But when Otto’s grandpa’s beloved gold watch is stolen, Homer realizes he has to take action. Lulu joins in his detective work as they try and crack the case. What they find and where will blow your socks off!
If mysteries are your favorite, along with clever animals and smart owners, this is the book for you! This is a particularly perfect read for middle grade readers.
A Sincere Thanks to Henry Cole, Peachtree Publishing Company and NetGalley for an ARC to read and review. Pub Date 01 Apr 2021. Known in GR as “Homer in the World”
