When I read the first line of this book, “It’s harder to drive a polar bear into somebody’s living room than you’d think,” I knew I had stumbled upon something good.
And I was right. How can you not love a book that starts with a polar bear being driven into a living room? How can you not want to keep reading to find out why exactly this polar bear is being driven into a living room? I rest my case.

Is it a novel? Or a graphic novel? Who cares! Timmy Failure books pull in young readers with engaging stories with lots of sidetracks and lots of cartoons along the way, ostensibly created by the main character, a detective named Timmy. However, Timmy’s a terrible detective, but that’s good when you encounter (and generate) silly mysterious situations like missing Halloween candy. Timmy continually seems to miss obvious clues, making the reader feel smarter and like they’re in on something that Timmy isn’t.
From David's list on kids with a touch of mystery and adventure.
