Azaleah can't wait for her class field trip to the National Zoo in Washington D.C., especially when her teacher announces the chance to earn extra credit. But when Azaleah gets home, she quickly realizes extra credit isn't as easy as she thought. Azaleah's younger sister Tiana can't find Greenie, her stuffed animal, and she's sure he's been stolen. With Mama at the restaurant and Daddy at work on a big case, it seems Azaleah is the only one available to track down the stolen stuffie. Can Azaleah get to the bottom of the mystery in time to finish her extra credit?

Critical Reviews
This inaugural book in the Azaleah Lane series is a fast-paced and fun read, and Azaleah is a sympathetic, likable narrator who, like readers, is learning new vocabulary all the time. . . .Lobo's playful, full-color illustrations every few pages are just enough to give transitioning readers needed rests so they'll keep going. . . .Young readers will be happy to make Azaleah's acquaintance.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
This enjoyable chapter book revolves around Azaleah and her upper-middle-class African American household and the ups and downs of family life in a Washington, DC suburb. Can she solve the mystery of her sister's missing stuffed frog and finish her diorama for school, or is she setting herself up for disappointment?-- "School Library Journal, "10 Chapter Book Mysteries for Young Super Sleuths""
