Just when Private I thinks all is calm-now that he's cracked the case of 7 Ate 9-Question Mark storms into the office.

Mark is worried. All the uppercase letters are M-I-S-S-I-N-G! But that's absurd. This is CAPITAL City!

Private I is the last letter standing. Will he solve his BIGGEST mystery yet, the UPPER CASE, before it's too late?!

Filled with the same humor, wit, and quirkiness of the hit 7 Ate 9: The Untold Story, comes another laugh-out-loud whodunit.

My Thoughts: I really enjoyed this book. It's just as much fun as the first book. Private I is smart and always follows the clues. He doesn't give up easily. I love the story's humor and grammar jokes. A fun book for all ages with great illustrations that add to the story. I hope there's more trouble in Capital City because these books are full of awesome.

Cover Thoughts: Cute
Library Recommendation: A must have for school and public libraries.
