Ship Shape: Upton Charles-Dog Detective

by D G Stern, Deborah Allison (Illustrator)

Overview

When the Chief of Police calls the Charles family to report that a brand new boat and trailer are missing from the boat show, Upton is

immediately recruited to apply his detective skills to the disappearance. Our super sleuth is a Bichon Frise (that's "BEE-shon free-

ZEY"), a little white dog, who wastes no time in sniffing out clues that lead to a surprising discovery. During the course of the

investigation, Upton is joined by a new assistant. Come along with Upton as he unravels another mystery in Ship Shape.
