Are you ready to be overwhelmed by cuteness, charm, and positive disability representation? Then prepare to meet Walia Nadir, a young Black girl who has started her own detective agency with her adorable and four-legged co-partner Woof in Sherri Winston’s Wednesday and Woof #1: Catastrophe.

A new chapter book series, Wednesday and Woof starts off with a mystery-minded Walia scoping out potential mysteries from her headquarters, an old boat in her family’s backyard. Initially it looks like she’ll have to rustle up a mystery on her own, until she’s presented with a case of a missing cat.
