The Pet Show Mystery
Book 37 of the Trixie Belden series
A community pet show gives Trixie Belden and the Bob-Whites a cheerful event to enjoy until something goes wrong. Animals, owners, prizes, and competition create a crowded field of clues when an unexplained incident develops into a mystery. Trixie’s concern for both people and pets keeps her investigating rather than dismissing the problem as ordinary show-day confusion. Kathryn Kenny combines animals and light juvenile suspense in a Trixie Belden case built around a familiar community activity.
