An aspiring handwriting analyst tracks down her missing neighbor in
this "gratifying mystery" (Kirkus Reviews) from the author of The
Problem with the Puddles.
More than anything, eleven-year-old Lucy wants to be the world's most
famous handwriting expert. "You can learn a lot about a person through
how they write their I's," she tells her friend, Pigeon--who just so
happens to be a talking bird. When Lucy's neighbor Zelda goes missing
and the only clue is a cryptic handwritten note, Lucy is determined to
crack the case using her graphology skills. With some help from Nicky,
who lives upstairs, and plenty of advice from Pigeon (who just so
happens to be very opinionated), can Lucy decipher the whereabouts of
her apartment building's missing resident?
