Bookroo's summary

Nate the Great faces a puzzling mystery: Rosamond's birthday present is missing, but she won't reveal what it is. As Nate navigates this tricky case, he must use his detective skills to uncover the truth. Will he solve the mystery, or will the surprise gift remain hidden? Join Nate in this engaging adventure where logic and curiosity lead the way, and discover if the solution is as surprising as the present itself.

Simont’s . . . cartoons are in tune with Sharmat’s comic touch.”–Booklist
