Summary:
Ace Lacewing: bug detective: When Queenie Bee goes missing, Ace Lacewing is hot on the honey trail. With his trusty sidekick, Sergeant Zito the Mosquito, Ace combs Motham City for clues. But the suspects are piling up, including Motham enemy number one, Al the Drone. Will Ace find Queenie Bee before it's too late? The bears we know: Does anyone really know the bears next door? Every neighborhood has its black sheep ... but this one has bears. Well, nobody has actually seen the inhabitants of the house at the end of the road, but that doesn't stop the gossip about The Bears We Know. Princess Justina Albertina: Princess Justina Albertina likes to have her own way. When she doesn't get it, she gets a funny look in her big green eyes and starts to fuss. When this horrid princess declares, "I WANT A PET!" her nanny searches far and wide to find the pet of Princess Justina Albertina's dreams. Ogre fun: One sluggish afternoon young Gronny catches a contagious case of yawns from a deceptively safe-looking creature in a playground, and he brings them back to the ogre homestead, where no one has ever seen a yawn before. Sally Dog Little: undercover agent: Sally Dog rises each day, knowing exactly how to please each member of the family. But when Twinkle shares her "When I grow up" dreams with Sally Dog, that sets Sally Dog to thinking. Sally decides she'd like to be an undercover agent, and so begins her new career. The wedding: On her way to town, Miss Brindle Cow meets a host of animals who are late for a very important wedding. What can she do? Gracious Miss Cow doesn't miss a beat. One by one, they climb on her back -- the organist, the pastor, the florist, and more. But where is the bride?
