Bookroo's summary

In Ms. Gleason's classroom, a foul odor disrupts science time, and young detectives Jigsaw Jones and Mita are on the case. Could a sabotaged volcano be the culprit? As they dig deeper, the duo must unravel the mystery before the stink takes over. With humor and clever sleuthing, these second-grade detectives face a challenge that tests their wits and friendship. Can they solve the case and restore order to the classroom, or will the stench prevail? Join Jigsaw and Mita in a fun-filled adventure full of twists and surprises.
