The Peanut Butter Thief (Burt & Mullet Kid Detectives) | C.E. Austin

Best friends, Burt and Mullet, just made the all-star basketball team. Every kid on the team has the new Skyscraper Pro basketball shoes and they feel like the losers of the century in their worn-out sneakers.

The entrepreneurs open a lemonade stand to earn the money, but two days later, have lost all hope of striking it rich. The solution falls into their laps when their neighbor, Darcy, is grounded for stealing her mother’s fancy mail-order peanut butter and offers her summer allowance to anyone who can clear her name.

Suddenly, Burt and Mullet have a detective agency. Even though they know nothing about being detectives, they are confident they can catch the peanut butter thief and make the money they so desperately need to fit in.
