About the Books. Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam are two hopeless robber dogs who never manage to fill their swag bags. After bungled attempts at robbing the bank, the bookshop and even their own neighbours, they give up crime for good and open a bakery, discovering that crime doesn't pay, but cupcakes certainly do! In the first book, readers meet the pair as they make their unlikely career change in a hilarious rhyming picture book adventure. The Cat Burglar sees a new robber, Kitty-le-Claw, strike at the bank, and it's up to the baker-dogs to sniff out the culprit. In The Diamond Chase, the pair bake for a swanky party, only to find themselves amid a jewel robbery involving a suspicious penguin. Santa's Stolen Sleigh whisks them to Lapland to bake for Santa, where a stranger has her eye on his magical sleigh. Finally, The Missing Masterpiece takes them to Paris to bake a gingerbread Eiffel Tower, only for a sneaky fox to make off with the real masterpiece. Told in Tracey Corderoy's bouncy rhyme and Steven Lenton's charming illustrations, these five stories reward repeat reading.. Key Benefits. Complete five-book set of a bestselling, laugh-out-
