Mary Droppins and the Spark-Sugar Heist

A Crumbville Adventures Book

Welcome back to Crumbville, where mysteries can be hidden in the smallest crumbs.

Mary Droppins is a cat with a very unusual job. Most residents know her as a polite visitor who enjoys a good cup of rosemary cream and always seems to arrive exactly when needed.

What they do not know is that Mary is one of Crumbville's most skilled secret agents.

When a priceless secret disappears, Mary is called upon to investigate.

As clues surface across Crumbville, she follows a trail filled with surprises, suspicious characters, and unexpected dangers. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes that some mysteries are far bigger than they first appear.

Along the way, Mary discovers new allies, hidden truths, and an important lesson about trust. Because solving a mystery is not always about finding what was lost. Sometimes it is about discovering who you can count on when things go wrong.

Filled with warmth, humor, unforgettable characters, and adventure, Mary Droppins and the Spark-Sugar Heist is an illustrated storybook mystery about friendship, courage, discovery, and doing the right thing when it matters most.

Perfect for readers who love The Tale of Despereaux, The Wild Robot, Mercy Watson, and other timeless stories filled with adventure, heart, and memorable characters.

Whether read independently or shared aloud, Mary Droppins and the Spark-Sugar Heist invites readers deeper into the enchanting world of Crumbville, where every mystery has a story and every clue can lead to something extraordinary.
