Bookroo's summary

Nancy's dream of having a puppy turns into a challenge when her chocolate Labrador is accused of stealing muffins. Determined to clear her pet's name, Nancy embarks on a quest to uncover the true thief. With the neighborhood buzzing and her puppy's innocence at stake, can Nancy solve the mystery before it's too late? Follow her as she navigates clues and unexpected twists in a race to reveal the real culprit. Will justice prevail, or will her beloved pup remain the prime suspect?

From the publisher

A little puppy is turning into a big problem! Nancy’s wish has finally come true: she has a dog of her own. She’s a chocolate-colored Labrador retriever, and she’s fun and friendly and loves to play. But the pup’s also in a sticky situation – and its up to Nancy to save her. Hannah’s fresh-baked muffins have vanished, and a food thief is loose in the neighborhood. And guess who’s getting blamed? Nancy’s new puppy. It’s so unfair, and she’s going to prove it…by finding the real thief!
