Key Selling Points - A simple and playful picture-book mystery.Bright colorful illustrations include lots of clues for young readers to find and help Mr. Beagle solve the puzzle.Story includes a resolution that emphasizes sharing, building community, and supporting local endeavors.Author's previous books have been shortlisted for provincial awards and included in CCBC's Best Books for Kids & Teens; one was included in the OLA's Top Ten Best Bets list. Author has written and illustrated eight highly regarded picture books, including The Puffin Problemand Paint the Town Pink; this is the third in her Mr. Beagle series, which also includes Mr. Beagle Goes to Rabbittownand Mr. Beagle and the Georgestown Mystery.  Understated humour, precise and fine-lined artwork and a caring, close-knit community make Mr. Beagle's story a cozy and whimsical delight.  [Mr. Beagle Climbs Signal Hill's] lively illustrations are a cheerful accompaniment with their sprightly palette and snappy patterns overlaying familiar scenes (I walk this route almost every day and the background is both spot-on familiar and exuberantly heightened). [...] And again, the puzzle is resolved in a sport of sharing and community.  A simple story set in a Richard Scary-esque St. John's. This would be a delightful book to read with a child who likes finding clues in the pictures of a book.  The illustrations are distinct and instantly recognizable, and the puns throughout both the imagery and the story are entertaining for all ages. [...] This story is a great example to children of making mistakes, owning up to them, apologizing and making it right, and in turn the positive outcome that can have.
