Who Really Killed Cock Robin?: An Ecological Mystery
Jean Craighead George
(Author)
Description
Cock Robin's death can't be ignored by the town of Saddleboro, because it means that something is drastically wrong with the town's ecology. Tony Isidoro threads his way through a maze of clues: Among other things, the town park is overrun with trillions of ants; nights are quiet because there are no frogs singing; the nearby river contains a dangerous amount of an unknown chemical; and the town dump is emitting strange fumes. What does it all add up to? It's a mystery all right, and it's up to Tony to figure out who really killed Cock Robin.

Reviews
"The tone of the whole adventure is buoyant, and the ecological complexities that constitute its theme are so neatly reflected in the plot that the scientific search for Cock Robin's murderer has an edge-of-the-chair excitement." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
