Bookroo's summary

When Mama Pigeon's tarts vanish, detectives Martin, Felix, and Ralph embark on a feathered quest. With suspects aplenty and time ticking, can they catch the thief before the treats are gone forever? Join the Pigeon Private Detectives in a whimsical mystery filled with humor and suspense.

From the publisher

The Pigeon Detectives are looking forward to devouring a delectable platter of jam tarts–until the tasty treats are stolen from right under their beaks! With tummies grumbling, the PPD are on the hunt for clues, but can the detectives recover the tarts in time before they are all eaten–or worse–stale? As the list of suspects grows longer, our heroes wonder if they’ll ever catch the thief jam-handed. Pigeon Private Detectives: The Case of the Missing Tarts, Christee Curran-Bauer’s author-illustrator debut, pokes fun at detective procedurals with kid-friendly humor!
