Tips & Tricks for Junior Detectives

by Thomas C. Brezina, Gabriele Klann (Illustrations), Bernard Forth (Illustrations)

How can junior detectives become master sleuths who behave just right at a crime scene; distract suspects, follow tracks, and decode secret messages? The Alligator Gang, a team of four kids--two boys and two girls--has the answers to these all-important questions...and once you open this wonderful "training manual" you will too! Create a multi-purpose pad to jot down observations, scribble a secret letter, and even take measurements. Set up all-natural alarm systems, make a great escape, and perfectly execute the "bandage trick." Don't go on a search without that "special suitcase" stuffed with such necessities as a measuring glass, flashlight, rubber gloves, and fingerprint powder.
