Praise for P.I. Butterfly: Gone Guppy:"Kids will laugh and learn as P.I. Butterfly solves the case!" - Jim Benton,  NYT bestselling author (Dear Dumb Diary, Franny K. Stein, Catwad)Omg how my kids BELLY LAUGHED through the entirety of this graphic novel. I read this aloud with my 4 and 6 year olds and I don't think we have ever had a louder reading experience, by the end, my cheeks hurt and my daughter had violent hiccups.The story was a blast, the characters are adorable, and the art is hilarious. As a parent and logophile, I loved the fun pop-up style vocab words on each page. This book is so sneakily educational!When my kids saw the PI clue kit coming out next month, they flipped. They cannot wait to solve crimes like PI Butterfly, and I am very excited for book 2! (Especially considering I'll be reading book one as a bed time story until then...) - Kara (Books.and.salt)"This is a delightful, cartoonish romp with zany digital illustrations that will have readers begging to know when the promised sequel will be released...Don't let this book flutter by—read it!" - Kirkus ReviewsEvery superhero has a backstory, and the intrepid protagonist in Kilpatrick's lively and hilarious graphic novel is no exception. Our young hero first decides to don her pink mask and start solving mysteries, we learn, five years back, when a butterfly led her to her missing doll, which had been stolen by a neighborhood dog. She's been a self-proclaimed private investigator ever since, and is eager to leap into action to take on this series starter's urgent main case: little sister Quinn's pet fish has gone missing. P.I. Butterfly observes the clues, interviews the suspects, and considers the evidence before she tracks down Mili's amusing whereabouts.  For kids as well as adults, much of this book is laugh-out-loud funny...German Blanco's bright, bold art shows red-haired, wide-eyed P.I. sleuthing with her magnifying glass poised and ready and her orange Alfredo by her side, the panel-to-panel storytelling clear, inventive, and always funny. A bonus: after cracking her case, P.I. offers tips on becoming a detective, which will inspire kids to search for and solve mysteries of their own.- Booklife, Editor's Pick
