The Case Of The Diamond Dog Collar (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
We didn’t have to go looking everywhere for Mr. Mormora. He sat down to eat with us! Only it seemed rude to interview a person who was eating a tuna melt. Wouldn’t he get indigestion? So Tessa and I made a date to talk to him later. Lunch was in the family dining room upstairs. The tuna melts came from the White House kitchen. They are Dad’s favorite, and I like them, too, but they’re messy. When I eat one the mayonnaise flies. “So how do you think Hooligan is getting on in class?” Dad asked Mr. Mormora. Mr. Mormora dabbed the corner of his mouth with his napkin. “Ah, you can see for yourself! He is an excellent student. He wants so much to make Cameron, his Canine Buddy, proud.” He flashed me a smile, and I felt myself blush. “There is, though, one thing that puzzles me,” Mr. Mormora continued. “Hooligan is a little, uh . . . fleshier than I would like. And yet he is on an excellent diet with no opportunity for snacking. Can you explain that?” He looked at us each for an answer.
