Just when Private I thinks all is calm-now that he’s cracked the case of 7 Ate 9-Question Mark storms into the office.

Mark is worried. All the uppercase letters are M-I-S-S-I-N-G! But that’s absurd. This is CAPITAL City!

Private I is the last letter standing. Will he solve his BIGGEST mystery yet, the UPPER CASE, before it’s too late?!

Filled with the same humor, wit, and quirkiness of the hit 7 Ate 9: The Untold Story, comes another laugh-out-loud whodunit.

REVIEW 

This story is perfect for those readers just advancing on from picture books and alphabet books and ready for a challenge!  This book is perfect for those not quite ready for chapter books. The plot reminds me of an old-time detective story and has the same flair but toned-down for the younger set.  This is a follow up to 7 ate 9 and takes place in Capital City when all of the capital letters disappear.  As you follow Private I with help from the Question Mark?  and Exclamation Point! as they search for clues that will keep your young one guessing and reading along with the wordplay. There are lots of silly puns that will have you laughing as well.

 

 

About Tara:

Street magic performer. Hog-calling champion. Award-winning ice sculptor. These are all things Tara Lazar has never been.

Instead, she writes quirky, humorous picture books where anything is possible.

Her picture books available now are:

• THE MONSTORE (Aladdin/S&S, 2013)
• I THOUGHT THIS WAS A BEAR BOOK (Aladdin/S&S, 2015)
• LITTLE RED GLIDING HOOD (Random House Children’s, 2015)
• NORMAL NORMAN (Sterling, 2016)
• WAY PAST  BEDTIME (Aladdin/S&S, 2017)

• YOUR FIRST DAY OF CIRCUS SCHOOL (Tundra, June 2019)

Tara is represented by Ammi-Joan Paquette of the Erin Murphy Literary Agency.

Her last name rhymes with “bazaar”—you can listen to Tara pronounce her name on TeachingBooks.net. She’s not Tara Laser-beam (although that would be awesome).
