Young detectives Reggie Rabbit and Pipsquark are there– as waiters for Auntie Hibiscus’s catering company. But not everything goes to plan. In the middle of Kitty Qita’s big act, the lights go out, and the guests’ jewels are STOLEN .
It’s a tough case, but Reggie and Pipsquark are on it! Does the answer lie in the mean streets of DOG LANE as the clues suggest? Or is there more to this mystery than meets the eye?
MY REVIEW
Reggie Rabbit Robbery at the Masqued Ball, is for 7 to 9 years. There’s a robbery, and Reggie Rabbit, is an aspiring young rabbit detective. Pipsquark is Reggie’s new detective partner. I loved how this book has been written, in a two part, setting with part like a comic, with cartoon characters and the writing in a bubble speech, just like comics have, and then another part is written with ordinary chapters, that are in chapter books. All children will be delighted with this fresh different layout of stories, in the Reggie Rabbit series.
Swapna Reddy, she is award-winning author, who also writes as Swapna Haddow, she is the author of the Ballet Bunnies series. She lives in New Zealand with her husband and son and their dog, Archie. If she wasn’t writing books, she would love to run a detective agency or wash windows because she’s very nosy. https://swapnahaddow.co.uk/
