Bookroo's summary

During the River Heights Halloween Pet Parade, Nancy's dog, Chocolate Chip, suddenly acts bizarrely, losing her spot as parade leader. Nancy, Bess, and George suspect foul play. Is it a jealous rival, a pet trainer, or a ghostly mutt? The Clue Crew must solve the mystery before chaos ensues. Can they uncover the truth behind Chip's odd behavior?

From the publisher

Nancy, Bess, and George solve a doggone puzzler of a mystery during the annual River Heights Halloween Pet Parade in the sixth book in an all-new, interactive Nancy Drew chapter book mystery series. Nancy, Bess, and George are gearing up for a weekend of River Heights Halloween activities, including the annual Howl-A-Ween Pet Parade! All the kids get to dress up their pets and march with them up Main Street. Nancy’s dog, Chocolate Chip, is even picked to lead the parade atop a festive hay wagon float! But right before show time, Chip starts whining, running in circles, and burrowing into the hay! When Nancy can’t calm her down, the parade officials remove her as the leader! Nancy, Bess, and George wonder if something–or someone–made Chip act that way. Nancy pulls out her clue book; the Clue Crew is on the case! Who’s behind Chip’s strange doggy behavior? Is it Deidre Shannon, who was mad that Chip was chosen over her princess puppy Pom-Pom to lead the parade? Felipe the Pet Trainer, who wanted a dog he was training to lead the parade? Or is it–yikes!–the ghost of Murray the Monster Mutt? Will the Clue Crew crack this case before all the River Heights pets go batty?
