Penny Pepper – All Under Control (vol. I)
Ten-year-old Penny Pepper has three big wishes – and about a million smaller ones! But the main ones are:
- a dog
- becoming a detective and solving crimes
- getting out of having to go to that stuck-up show-off Flora’s party
Sadly, the third wish doesn’t come true, but then again Penny would never have dreamt she’d get involved in her first big case at Flora’s birthday party, of all places. Because suddenly Flora’s birthday present – Dschastin, the cutest dog in the whole wide world – disappears without trace. And who does Flora accuse of kidnapping him? Penny, of course! Penny isn’t going to put up with that, so she goes about collecting evidence with the help of her best friends. Her sleuthing sets her on the trail of some likely suspects, and after losing the scent a couple of times she sniffs out the real dog-napper…
