Megan McDonald Quote

Stompers! The next morning, Judy was already hard at work on the case by the time Stink woke up. She sprawled on the floor with a rainbow of markers all around her. What’re you doing to Officer Kopp’s flyers? Stink asked. Fixing them, said Judy, coloring in blue eyes on the picture of Mr. Chips. Stink tilted his head, reading upside down. He was trying to figure out the words Judy had just added. ‘Have you seen this goo?’ ‘Have you seen this dog.’ Oh. Your D looks like an O. Stink, a good detective can read backward and upside down. Judy colored in a black letter R. ‘Drawer’? Stink asked, squinching up his face. ‘Reward’! said Judy. We have to offer big bucks so that anyone who has seen Mr. Chips or has any information on his whereabouts will call the police. Rule Number One of being a good detective is don’t be afraid to ask for help. You mean Rule Number One Gazillion!
