"What do a cuckoo who abandons her own egg and a frog who fakes his own death have in common? They're two of the most wanted creatures in the animal kingdom! In this hilarious nonfiction book, readers will meet 13 badly behaved creatures and the detective who's on the hunt to restore order to the animal kingdom. Each animal is wanted for a particular crime -- and spitting, lying, stealing and destruction of property are just a few of the ways these creatures cause trouble. Take a peek into Detective X's case files to learn more about these sneaky animal criminals, including a monkey who cries wolf, crabs that create chaos, and more!"--
