Luckily, Chip and friends Justin and Charlene make up Invisible Inc., a team of clever detectives who use their special abilities (invisibility, lip reading, and logic) to solve mysteries. Soon they're hot on the trail of the dognapper, following leads that enable them to solve the case in time for Max to collect a blue ribbon in the show. Second in the Invisible Inc. series, this appealing mystery features likable characters, a solvable plot, and colorful illustrations. Carolyn Phelan

5.0 out of 5 stars How Do You Find An Invisible Dog?, December 30, 2007

This review is from: The Mystery of the Missing Dog (Invisible Inc., No. 2: Hello Reader! Level 4) (Paperback)

Except for his tail, Chip's dog, Max is invisible. Chip is also invisible, except for his clothes. The fact that Chip owns invisable clothing comes in handy when he wants to sneak up on a suspect.

Chip,along with his crime solving team, Charlene, who writes with invisable ink and Justin, who is hearing impaired and can read lips, are busy unraveling the mystery of the missng dog. They have several suspects. Amazing Grace, who has wild red hair and a dog named Merlin, does magic tricks for Birthday Parties. William, the owner of a Doberman pinscher, is jealous that Max can do tricks his dog can't do. And Mary, who bought dog food, when they know she doesn't own a dog.

How will the mytery solving team of Invisable Inc. find an invisable dog?
Invisible Inc. The Mystery of the Missing Dog, is a 48 page, early chapter book. It is an excellent way to introduce new words to a readers vocabulary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and good for hearing impaired children to read!, October 17, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Mystery of the Missing Dog (Invisible Inc., No. 2: Hello Reader! Level 4) (Paperback)

This book is great! It is a great mystery for young children and it also provides a way to include a hearing impaired child in a story without making the story about "a hearing impaired child". I have a hearing impaired son and I can not find stories about hearing impaired children. I was so impressed with this book that I have decided to purchase a copy of each book for my son's school library.
