Created by \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e best-selling cartoonist Stephan Pastis.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake eleven-year-old Timmy Failure — the clueless, comically self-confident CEO of the best detective agency in town, perhaps even the nation. Add his impressively lazy business partner, a very large polar bear named Total. Throw in the Failuremobile — Timmy’s mom’s Segway — and what you have is Total Failure, Inc., a global enterprise destined to make Timmy so rich his mother won’t have to stress out about the bills anymore. Of course, Timmy’s plan does not include the four-foot-tall female whose name shall not be uttered. And it doesn’t include Rollo Tookus, who is so obsessed with getting into \"Stanfurd\" that he can’t carry out a no-brainer spy mission. From the offbeat creator of\u003ci\u003e Pearls Before Swine\u003c\/i\u003e comes an endearingly bumbling hero in a caper whose peerless hilarity is accompanied by a whodunit twist. With perfectly paced visual humor, Stephan Pastis gets you snorting with laughter, then slyly carries the joke a beat further — or sweetens it with an unexpected poignant moment — making this a comics-inspired story (the first in a new series) that truly stands apart from the pack.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Candlewick Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47025967923440,"sku":"9780763660505","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780763660505_p0.jpg?v=1764102366","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780763660505","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
