The Case of the Pinched Stradivarius: The Adventures of Miles and Fargo: Turtle Detectives
Miles and Fargo are your average turtles.They swim, lounge around and fight over the one rock in their tank.But Miles and Fargo are different in one major way: like Jimmy Stewart’s character in the iconic 1954 film “Rear Window,” they witness a crime from the window of their apartment and manage to solve it - without leaving their tank. The Case of the Pinched Stradivarius (Ampersand, Inc., Publishing, April 2018), is a unique whodunit - a mix of television script and comic book.The story is told in an all-dialogue format, with icons representing the characters in the story so kids can identify with them more closely. The story is written by Elaine Loeser (Chicago, IL), former writer for the long-running NBC drama “Law & Order”, with wonderfully vibrant illustrations by Greg Arvanitakis.One day, while looking out the window, Miles and Fargo witness a little girl's violin stolen by a bad man, who snatches the instrument and runs away. After watching carefully, the turtles enlist the services of Bogie and Bandit, the dogs who live in the apartment with them, to do the investigative legwork during their walks.The dogs get all the credit when the violin is found.But that’s ok with Miles and Fargo.They did the thinking. The Case of the Pinched Stradivarius is the story of how they manage to solve the crime and bring the thief to justice, thus becoming: Miles and Fargo, Turtle Detectives!
