Star Chapter Books are the perfect bridge for kids moving beyond beginning readers but not yet ready for longer chapter books. With short chapters, bold two-color illustrations, and fast-paced, funny stories, these confidence-building books make reading fun and rewarding.

In this "buggy, kid-friendly" (School Library Journal, starred review) animal mystery, Bugopolis's greatest detective takes on his tastiest case yet--the hunt for a missing crumb!

Sherlock Roach and his loyal partner Dr. Wormston are more than just a detective duo--they're friends who always stick together. When a very important crumb vanishes without a trace, the pair hunts for clues throughout the insect underworld in a mystery that's easy to follow, fun to read, and filled with laughs. Can they crack the case before all the crumbs disappear for good?

Each Star Chapter Book is 112 pages long, divided into six to eight short chapters with illustrated panels on every page to keep kids engaged from start to finish. This highly visual early chapter book format supports the transition from leveled readers to chapter books, making Star Chapter Books a perfect fit for independent reading, classroom libraries, or shared story time.

Look for more Star Chapter Books adventures to help kids grow confident and develop a love of reading, including The Super Roomies in the Lake of Slime!

He earned an MFA in writing for children and young adults from the Vermont College of Fine Arts and a master of arts in writing from Rowan University. A former Army officer, Joe lived in many places, including New Jersey and West Virginia with his wife, Jessica Rinker (who is also a children's author), and their two dogs, Pepper and Odin.
