Ship Shape: Upton Charles-Dog Detective
When the Chief of Police calls the Charles family to report that a brand new boat and trailer are missing from the boat show, Upton is immediately recruited to apply his detective skills to the disappearance.
Our super sleuth is a Bichon Frise (that’s “BEE-shon free-ZEY”), a little white dog, who wastes no time in sniffing out clues that lead to a surprising discovery.
During the course of the investigation, Upton is joined by a new assistant.
Come along with Upton as he unravels another mystery in Ship Shape.
