Description
A thought provoking mystery unravels as an Elephant suddenly disappears from the middle of a circus parade. It's up to the novice detective team; the "3Gs" to solve the case of the disappearing elephant. Logical thinking George, the more lateral thinking Gina and the lie-detecting dog G.B. The young detectives must use their imagination and sharp perceptive skills to solve the case. It isn't all easy sailing, as at first no one appears to have a motive to steal an elephant. Then, it suddenly seems that everyone has a motive. The elephant makes matters very complicated by reappearing and then disappearing once again. The young detectives must constantly adjust and restructure their thinking techniques if they are to catch the elephant thieves! A story for both young and old about the power of good thinking and creative collaboration to solve problems.
