About This Book
In 'The Case of the Deadly Ha-ha Game,' readers follow the self-proclaimed Head of Ranch Security, Hank the Cowdog, and his loyal but dimwitted sidekick, Drover, as they stumble through a new 'case.' Their mission involves an 'epic battle' with the mischievous coyotes, Rip and Snort, all centered around a quest for some coveted meaty treats. This chapter book is part of a long-running, beloved series known for its slapstick humor, Hank's exaggerated internal monologues, and the endearing friendship between the dogs. It's perfect for early to late elementary readers (ages 4-11) who enjoy animal stories, light mysteries, and plenty of laughs. Parents will appreciate the focus on loyalty and perseverance, even if presented through a comedic lens.
Hank the Cowdog, Head of Ranch Security, and assistant deputy Drover engage in an epic battle with the coyotes, Rip and Snort, as they all seek some meaty treats.
