When mysterious disappearances disturb peaceful Rivergum Village, Detective Pablo the Platypus is on the case! Despite his clumsy nature and oversized grandfather's fedora, Pablo's super-sensitive bill can detect the tiniest clues. Partnered with grumpy Sloan the Saltwater Crocodile, Pablo must investigate why treasured items are vanishing.
The arrival of charming capybaras with exotic goods seems unrelated—until Pablo discovers forgotten tunnels beneath the village. When evidence is lost during a tunnel chase, Pablo must rally the unique talents of village animals to set an ingenious trap.
With time running out before the capybaras escape, can Pablo catch the thieves and recover the stolen treasures? This first adventure in Kingdom Animalia combines mystery and friendship while celebrating how being different can be your greatest strength.
