What is The Wrong End of the Stick about?

Sally Stick and her loyal dog, Fetch, are back on the case. While staying with Uncle Bob, the detective duo must investigate a series of puzzling problems: missing glasses, mysterious damage that might have been caused by a beaver, and a handbag that has vanished. As Sally and Fetch follow clues, accidents, misunderstandings and plenty of comic confusion get in their way. Can the friends solve each mystery and uncover what is really happening in the town?
