In this slapstick illustrated crime adventure, the honest Theo Pincher, who doesn't fit in to his family of criminals, finds a clever way to save the family dog, Sherlock, from the nasty new police officer.
The new police officer, Clive, is not nice--even the other police are afraid of him. Everything, even the dog, must have a receipt to prove there's no stealing going on. Things without receipts are locked up.
Of course, Theo's family don't have a receipt for anything, especially not for their dog Sherlock. When Sherlock is caught, Theo makes a plan to get him back using cooking oil, a dog onesie, and cunning--a plan so good even Theo's family are impressed.
This criminally funny tale contains a break-in at the candy store, an interrogation, and comical commentary from the dog, who thinks his name is Shuddup Sherlock.
Praise for The Pinchers:
"If you are looking for a goofy, good fun beginning chapter book reader series, pinch this book. Criminally good writing, illustrations, and design."--Jon Scieszka, US National Ambassador for Young Peoples Literature
"Ingenious, well-written and with absolutely wonderful illustrations. We enjoy stories where we both giggle and nod thoughtfully . . . . Criminally good!" Crimetime Award for Children's Detective of the Year 2022
