The Case of the Good Boy by John Allison
4.0

Tackleford's kid detectives have a new case: nine babies have been stolen by a strange beast roaming the local forests. Luckily Sonny is a member of the Nature Folk club, and has been honing his tracking skills for years. Meanwhile, an adorable and bizarrely intelligent dog-like animal has shown up at Mildred's house, and she talks her parents into letting her keep it. Both of these creatures look stranger similar to the creatures that Mildred and Charlotte drew with the magic pencil they won at the fair... but the pencil went missing and now a big game hunter is after the Tackleford Beast. Just as hilarious and entertaining as the first in the series. Allison's writing of teen dialogue is gold.
