“Let’s have a look at that puzzle.” He grinned at Abby and the others. “Five seconds, you say?”
Jason counted the seconds.
Mr. Tressler’s bony fingers flew.
“Three seconds!” Jason shouted. “Mr. Tressler put the puzzle together in only three seconds!”
The kids cheered.
“Mr. Tressler made it!” Jason said. “He made the puzzle!”
“Thank you, Mr. Tressler,” Abby said. “Thank you very much!”
Mr. Tressler’s eyes twinkled.
The mystery was solved.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Beverly Lewis remembers waiting for the mail as a kid. She wrote lots of letters to pen pals and other friends. (Still does!)
Beverly and her younger sister, Barbara, had lots of fun with their neighborhood friends. They made “Mushy Goo-Goo”—a secret recipe that included a little water and lots of dirt. They dressed their cats in doll clothes. They hitched up Maxie, their Eskimo Spitz, to a sled and went to the store in a blizzard.
They even had a carnival to raise money for a Jerry’s Kids Telethon. And ended up in the newspaper, and later got to be on TV!
If you like books that tickle your funny bone, look for Beverly’s next books in the Cul-de-sac Kids series.
