After bungled attempts at robbing the bank, the bookshop and even their own neighbours, they give up crime for good and open a bakery, discovering that crime doesn't pay, but cupcakes certainly do! In the first book, readers meet the pair as they make their unlikely career change in a hilarious rhyming picture book adventure. The Cat Burglar sees a new robber, Kitty-le-Claw, strike at the bank, and it's up to the baker-dogs to sniff out the culprit. In The Diamond Chase, the pair bake for a swanky party, only to find themselves amid a jewel robbery involving a suspicious penguin. Santa's Stolen Sleigh whisks them to Lapland to bake for Santa, where a stranger has her eye on his magical sleigh. Finally, The Missing Masterpiece takes them to Paris to bake a gingerbread Eiffel Tower, only for a sneaky fox to make off with the real masterpiece. Told in Tracey Corderoy's bouncy rhyme and Steven Lenton's charming illustrations, these five stories reward repeat reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete five-book set of a bestselling, laugh-out-loud children's series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRhyming text builds fluency, rhythm and reading confidence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGentle whodunnit mysteries encourage prediction and critical thinking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharming illustrations by award-winning illustrator Steven Lenton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal bridge from picture books to early chapter books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat value bundle, perfect for gifting or building a home library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTracey Corderoy is a bestselling British children's author who has written over 70 books since 2010.
