Holy macaroni! Someone is stealing tasty snacks and crafty food art at Friendswood elementary school. Luckily Catty Corner and her best friends, Jo and Bebe, are on the case. Soon they're following clues and tracking down leads. But the three friends can't agree on much--is it a ghost, some very hungry mice, or a sneaky thief with a big appetite known as the Gobbler Bandit? Can they catch the culprit before their school's big Meatball Mania fundraiser, or will it be a foodie fiasco?

Julie Murphy creates another unforgettable protagonist for a whole new audience! Voracious chapter book readers, looking for new series, will fall for the funny, fearless Catty, who faces each new adventure with humor and emotional honesty--learning when it's appropriate to pounce into action.
