Bookroo's summary

At Pawston Elementary, puppy detective Rider Woofson discovers he's not alone in his sleuthing skills. Teaming up with fellow canine detectives, they form the PI Pack to tackle their first big case: a lunchtime bandit swiping the best snacks. With the school's favorite treats at stake, can the Pup Detectives solve the mystery and save lunch for everyone, or will they be stuck with Soup Surprise forever? Join the PI Pack on a tail-wagging adventure filled with mystery and fun.

From the publisher

In this first installment of the Pup Detectives graphic novel series, the pup detectives of Pawston Elementary join forces to solve the crimes happening all around them. Can they nab the lunchtime bandit who’s been stealing all the best snacks from the cafeteria? Puppy PI Rider Woofson thought he was the only detective at Pawston Elementary, but while bringing down a pencil theft ring, he finds out that there are other super sleuths at school. Fortunately (or not!) there’s plenty of pet-ty crime happening at Pawston, so Rider joins forces with the other puppy PIs to form the PI Pack–the best (and only!) detective group at school. Their first case is high stakes because it hits every student in the belly…a lunchtime bandit is stealing the best food from the cafeteria! Will the Pup Detectives bring the noodle nabber to justice, or will the hungry students of Pawston be left to endure Soup Surprise for lunch every day?
