Summary

Welcome to Inspector Flytrap's Detective Agency, home to the world-renowned solver of BIG DEAL mysteries. Inspector Flytrap, a Venus flytrap, works tirelessly with his assistant Nina the Goat, a goat, on his community's unsolved cases. There's no case too big, but there are definitely cases too small for this endearingly self-important plant detective. In book two, Inspector Flytrap and Nina the Goat return in a set of mysteries involving the president of the United States and a very large horse statue that mysteriously attracts a threat from outer space.

This wacky, illustrated early-chapter-book series combines the masterful humor of Tom Angleberger with the critically acclaimed art of his wife, author-illustrator Cece Bell.

Horn Book Review

In this welcome sequel, pompous POTUS Horse G. Horse demands that Inspector Flytrap and his ever-blasi assistant, Nina the Goat, save the White House, the city, the country, and the world from a four-hundred-foot Venus flytrap. As in book one, rapid-fire pacing propels a plot filled with ridiculous wordplay. Potty humor and absurdity abound in Bell's two-color cartoons and in the short, punny first-person narrative.
