From the Publisher
"Smashie will endear herself to many readers. . . . A gentle and humorous mystery for younger middle grade readers." -- School Library Journal
The day the hamster disappears from Smashie McPerter's class begins like any other. As Room 11 descends into paranoia-fueled chaos, as natural suspects produce natural alibis, and as motives remain unmotivated, Smashie and her best friend, Dontel, are forced to the limits of their parlor-room detecting to set things right.
