P.I. Gus Detective at Lardge: Episode 2- When Pigs Fly! - Paperback

by Hank Kunneman (Author), Norris Hall (Illustrator)

Before You Follow the Clues, Make Sure You Know the Whole Story!

Have you ever been completely sure about something--only to discover that you had it all wrong? What happens when one suspicious clue becomes a conclusion, an accusation, and a full-blown chase before anyone stops to ask the right questions?

P.I. Gus is ready to crack another case. But this time, the world's greatest pig detective may need to investigate his own assumptions.

When Gus and his team spot an older traveler carrying a little girl's purple suitcase through BaHAMas International Airport, the evidence seems obvious. A suitcase has been stolen, a suspect is escaping, and there is no time to waste. Soon the team is racing through security, searching baggage areas, chasing airplanes, and creating more airport chaos than anyone thought possible.

Through this hilarious mystery adventure, Hank Kunneman reveals a timeless lesson every child--and every grown-up--needs to remember: appearances can be misleading, and wisdom takes time to listen, investigate, and get the facts straight.

As you join P.I. Gus and his unusual crew, you'll discover how to:

• Choose truth over rumors, fear, and first impressions.
• Recognize when assumptions are pretending to be facts.
• Pause before accusing someone or repeating an incomplete story.
• Ask better questions when something does not make sense.
• Listen carefully before deciding who is right or wrong.

You do not have to be fooled by every suspicious-looking clue. God's wisdom can help you slow down, seek the truth, and respond with grace. Open the case, join the investigation, and prepare to laugh while discovering why the whole story always matters.

"Sometimes the very best thing you can do Is get your facts straight!" - Hank Kunneman

This is more than a mystery about a missing suitcase. It is a playful reminder that good intentions do not replace good judgment--and that even the most confident detective needs humility, patience, and wisdom.

Follow the clues, seek the truth, and never make the mistake of judging the story before you reach the final page.
