It is the worst of times. Teddy and Pip's perfect lives have been turned upside down. Amelia has been gone for too many days, there are no postcards and Wally did not come. Mom Jane does it all wrong. She took away the TV remote, gave them tap water and called them monsters. Worst of all, she put them in a bucket. Help is needed. But how can they get it without revealing their big secret? You see, Teddy and Pip... can talk. Nine-year-old Molly Jane Fisher comes to the rescue. Not only does she love guinea pigs, she can keep a secret. She is also a detective and will not close the case until everything is sorted out. A Tale of Two Guinea Pigs is about love, loyalty, a puzzling mystery and smart detective work. Most of all, it is about two very special guinea pigs who will make you laugh and capture your heart. LISA MADDOCK lives in Shakopee, Minnesota with her husband Bill, daughter Allison and two pampered guinea pigs-Maggie and Peanut. (Teddy and Pip are not finished with her; they have more to say, so more stories are coming.)
