Mr. and Mrs. Bunny – Detectives Extraordinaire!

Mr. and Mrs. Bunny – Detectives Extraordinaire! written by Polly Horvath is full of quirky, memorable characters, a hysterical plot, and enough details to keep adults engaged as well.  When Madeline’s parents get kidnapped from their homes by a group of foxes led by the Grand Poobah, it is up to Madeline with the help of newly self-appointed detectives, Mr. and Mrs. Bunny to find her parents before they become the foxes’ dinner.

This book had me chuckling out loud through most of it.  The characters are just quirky enough to be interesting without losing my attention all together and the story is well-paced keeping the parents’ disappearance as the focal point even when subplots are mentioned.  If a middle grade student is looking for something interesting and different – this is definitely the book I would recommend!
