The Clockwork Twin

Walter R. Brooks. Overlook Press, $23.95 (220pp) ISBN 978-1-58567-358-2

Two new arrivals in the ongoing reissue program for Walter R. Brooks's Freddy the Pig series are The Clockwork Twin and The Story of Freginald. In the first title, Freddy and the Bean Farm animals become detectives in a search for a missing boy; the second tale follows a young bear who joins the circus. Both books feature the original, delightfully humorous pen-and-ink drawings of Kurt Wiese.
