"When I'm faced with a Pilkey fan looking to branch out, this graphic novel is the first book I reach for... If eight books aren't enough, the spinoff series, Agents of S.U.I.T., continues the fun." ―The New York Times With more than four million copies in print, #1 New York Times -bestselling author John Patrick Green's goofy graphic novel series is a colossal comics hit! Join super spy alligator duo MANGO and BRASH as they surf the sewers and fight the forces of evil. With their Very Exciting Spy Technology and their tried-and-true, toilet-based travel techniques, the InvestiGators are undercover and on the case! And on their first mission together, they have not one but two mysteries to solve! Can Mango and Brash uncover the clues, crack their cases, and corral the crooks―or will the criminals wriggle out of their grasp? Collect all the books in the #1 bestselling InvestiGators series: InvestiGators Take the Plunge Off the Hook Ants in Our P.A.N.T.S. Braver and Boulder Heist and Seek All Tide Up Class Action Case Files Weather or Not Review: My 5-year-old is obsessed (and so am I!) - Long story short: you need this book! Once you read it, you’ll realize that you need all of them. I recommend this series for children ages 5-9. The long story: I bought this book on a whim, thinking it might interest my comic- and superhero-obsessed 5-year-old. The InvestiGators book series quickly became his new obsession! The book is presented in a comic strip fashion, which instantly captured my son’s attention. The writing is SO funny and the storyline manages to be the perfect combination of bizarre and brilliant! My husband and I joke (but aren’t really joking) that this author is a literary genius. We quickly devoured the entire series and are anxiously waiting for the next book to be released. In the meantime, my son “reads” these books to himself on a daily basis (a perk to the comic style is that he can “read” the pictures even though he’s not yet reading words). At his insistence, this is our go-to birthday gift for all of his friends. As a mom, teacher, and children’s book author myself, I own A LOT of children’s books. The InvestiGators series is one of my favorites. We have tried out countless similar series and none of them compare. I highly, highly recommend the InvestiGators books! Highlights: -The comic-style presentation is great for kids who already enjoy comic books and would be a fun introduction for kids who are new to them. This style is also fabulous for children who are not yet able to read the book themselves because they can “read” the illustrations. -The content of the story is strange and hilarious in a way that is appropriate for children. Many similar books have content that is a bit mature for this age group or that models/encourages rude or inappropriate behavior. I love that this book is able to be fun without being obnoxious. -It’s really funny and “punny” - even for adults! Review: Great comic book for ages 7-10! - Purchased the Investigators book for my 8 year old daughter. She absolutely loves the comic book style! She just finished the dog man books so we were looking for another similar style of book for her to read and we found these. They appear very similar with the colorful animated comic book style pages. It's a fun imaginative book with lots of colors and pictures. She's able to get through these books without issues at her 3rd grade level. She's very into them, they keep her attention. Very happy with the purchase and would recommend to anyone with a child around 7-10. Great buy!

Good Book to Read
My grandkids loved it. Several months since I purchased it for them & without the threat of beating them they have acknowledged a real pleasure with reading it. Ages 5, 8 & 10.

My boy read every word, every page, said "More more more please".
I sent two of these InvestiGator books to my grandson age 9 and he "loved, loved, loved" them. Went to the library and checked out more of them. Now he wants the follow up of them ~'Agents of " for his birthday. But since he reads so much, loves these books, I'll send them NOW.

Kids Love this Series
The book is actually full of clever puns as well as child level humor. My kids love this series and asked to have their own copies of these books. They will sit and read these for hours.

From Giggles to Good Reading: A Teacher’s Review of InvestiGators
Highly engaging for reluctant and avid readers alike. The mix of visual storytelling with humor keeps students turning pages, especially those who are less enthusiastic about chapter books. The use of Puns help readers in sustenance of reading. InvestiGators is a classroom-friendly, entertaining graphic novel that builds reading enthusiasm and supports literacy.

The book arrived damaged
The book arrived torn and damaged. I ordered another book which arrived fine. This one was probably packed already torn. I am really disappointed as my daughter was looking forward to reading this one.
