Platypus Police Squad: The Frog Who Croaked is the first in a series of zany, action-packed middle-grade mysteries featuring platypus police detectives Rick Zengo and Corey O’Malley.
 
When a call comes in about a crime down at the docks involving a missing schoolteacher and a duffle bag full of illegal fish, Zengo and O’Malley are going to have to learn to set their differences aside if they want to get to the bottom of this. Especially when the clues all point to Frank Pandini Jr., Kallamazoo’s first son and its most powerful, well-respected businessman.
 
Fans of Adam Rex, Jon Scieszka, and Jarrett J. Krosoczka’s own Lunch Lady graphic novels will flip for Jarrett’s new series of illustrated middle-grade novels.

I think this book was amazing, if your looking for a book this is what you should choose.

I thought that the book was really good, but I don't know old you are, and I'm 10.

This book wasn't nessarily for my age,but because I love reading I read it anyways.It wasn't the best book in the world,but it was pretty cool for ages younger then me.I love all books that have to do with sluething or something like spy's.I recommend this book if anyone decides to read it...It was ok.

i like that the author made the platypus police squad .this book is veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerry boring.

I read this book and I did not like it. It was kind of hard to understand, and it was boring. I would not recommend this book.

Platypus Police Squad is sort of a book for kids between 7 and 9. It's definitely not for people 10 and older. I read it last year and it was childish. It's basically an easy mystery thriller.

I really enjoyed this book. I love the platypus idea and i love that the authors idea to make it platypus's and not anything else. I love the thing with many different animals and a city. The ending was really awesome and i could tell that from begin the bad guy was Pandini. It was sooo good i couldn't stop reading it. I love the part when they were chasing joey and they made a big scene though it was the wrong guy, or was it. Great book really enjoyed it.
