Although this book uses pretty basic language, I think this book is a transitional book. It is fairly long and contains chapters. This book still focuses pretty heavily on repetition though.I thought this book had a cute and easy to follow storyline. I think that children will find the mystery in this book to be appealing and fun to read.This book could be used in the classroom when children are studying about insects. The students could read through this book and compare the different insects in the book to the same insects in real life to see their similarities and differences. This would also be a good book to introduce the genre of mystery books to students because this book has an easy to follow mystery incorperated in it. The book could be used to teach about the elements of a mystery as well, including how something is wrong and how some investigating must be done to make it right. This would be a good independent reading book for a student who is interested in insects or for a student who enjoys having mystery books read to them and wants to start reading them independently. I also think this book would be a good book to help children transition into reading chapter books.

If you read this book by yourself, you'll think it's quite goofy. But, when you read it with a child, something magical happens. Every one of my four children has fallen in love with this book. I don't know if it's the first experience with a mystery or the whimsical nature of the crime scene, but I have been amazed as I have watched them all fall for this book. I think 4 out of 4 kids proves it is a reading winner.

This is a great book for second-graders. They should be able to read this book independently. It has two characters that act as detectives who solve mysteries. Though it may teach students a certain persuasion about law enforcement, it might also encourage students to predict what will happen next, something that's rare in these texts.

Doug Cushman might be joining Cynthia Rylant as one of the few authors that can create interesting characters and plots within the easy reader format. Inspector Hopper contains 3 chapter stories about a grasshopper private eye (err...bug), his always hungry sidekick McBugg. If we came across a copy of this, or the sequel, I'd buy them in an instant. I wish he'd write more.

A cute series of stories of Inspector Hopper (a grasshopper) and is sidekick McBugg (beetle?) solving little mysteries in the bug world. Asher (5 y.o.) read it all to himself and enjoyed them.Nice illustrations to go with the stories.
