Description
Leila & Nugget have big plans for their snow day – that is, until a neighbourhood pet goes missing. Now, they’ve got to solve the mystery before the turtlenapper can strike again.
Could it be Weirdy Beardy, the construction worker? Perhaps it’s the cranky, old neighbour lady. Or maybe, just maybe, this is an inside job. Who Stole Mr. T? will keep young readers guessing until the last page.
Leila & Nugget Mysteries reward developing readers with nonstop laughs, twists, and – of course – cute pets.

About the Author
Deserae and Dustin Brady are the parents of Leila Brady (a girl) and Nugget Brady (a dog). They live in Cleveland, Ohio. Dustin wants to buy a turtle. Deserae does not.
April Brady grew up in Maine and has been bringing her imagination to life in pencil since she was a wee lass. Teaming up with her family to tell stories is her favourite thing to do. When she isn’t drawing, she gets to have new adventures with her own little girls (the real Leila’s cousins).
