The Startling Story Of The Stolen Statue - Plot & Excerpts
My best friends, Brian Rooney, Kelly Smitts, and Mara Lubin, are the other Goofballs. They’re also on the planet (except it’s sometimes hard to tell with Brian). Together, we solve mysteries. Goofball mysteries. Like the one yesterday. It was huge. You could even call it the Crime of the Century! And it all happened at our school. It was also our goofiest mystery so far. There was a smelly scrap of paper. A word too long to say. A chunk of cheese. A pet badger. And Brian’s favorite pants. But hold on. I’m getting ahead of myself. Which can hurt. Because when I stop, Brian, Kelly, and Mara bump into me, and we all end up on the floor like a pile of sandbags. Oh, right. Sandbags. They were part of the mystery, too. So let me begin at the beginning. Or rather at the end. The end of the school day. Because that’s when the mystery started. We were all in homeroom, talking about the huge party that evening. Badger Point School was having its 100th anniversary. A statue of the school’s first principal would be unveiled.
