Read this excerpt from the poem "The Missing Books": Detective, sidekick, both confused,
Sandra, for the stakeout, used
Clear powder to cover the box,
While Dennis hid, eyes like a hawk's.

Read this excerpt from the story, The Mystery of the Missing Library Books:

As the library prepared to close, Sandra volunteered to help Victor place new releases on the shelves. As the two library helpers laughed together, Sandra secretly coated the box in an invisible powder of her own invention. The powder would stick to the thief's hands and show up under a black light. Meanwhile, I found a hiding spot in the shelves. It was incredibly cramped, and I had to stay very still.
