Guests, staff and an invited dog trainer are all considered suspects by the girls.
The action is raucous and totally age appropriate in this second title in the First Kids Mystery series. Narrated by Cammie, the voice sounds authentic to an active youngster who occasionally rebels against the required security and rules, and fondly remembers life before the White House. The girls collect evidence and propose motives while occasionally dropping tidbits about the White House and life in it. Hooligan lives up to his name.
This charming title will satisfy budding sleuths and future politicians alike.
