Meet Pebbles the Pug: The Littlest Detective with the Biggest Appetite
By DeKeyser Publishing
If there’s one thing Pebbles does better than nap in sunbeams, it’s sniff out trouble—especially when that trouble smells like breakfast. Today we’re sharing a brand-new comic from our Pebbles the Pug universe: “Case of the Missing Bacon.” It’s a bite-sized mystery with a big heart (and an even bigger burp).
In this mini-adventure, Pebbles dons her trusty detective cap and patrols the kitchen—magnifying glass in paw—when disaster strikes: the bacon is gone. Suspects line up. Alibis wobble. Someone says, “What bacon?” and we suddenly have a full-blown caper.
What we love most? The story plays out on two levels:
For kids, it’s silly, surprising, and laugh-out-loud fun.
For grown-ups, it’s a gentle wink at the mysteries we all face in family life—missing socks, missing remotes, and yes, missing bacon.
And that ending? Let’s just say our detective might have been… a little too close to the evidence.
Why Pebbles Works for Families
Curiosity. Pebbles asks questions, follows clues, and keeps things light. Her curiosity invites kids to do the same—notice details, think critically, and keep an open mind.
Honesty (with humor). Without lecturing, this comic nudges a simple truth: when we own our oopsies, everyone can smile and move on. (Burps optional.)
Connection. Stories like this create an easy moment for parents and kids to talk. Who do you think took the bacon? What clues did you spot? What would you do as the detective?
Try This at Home: “Little Detective” Game
After you read the comic together, play a quick round of Little Detective:
Pick a household “mystery” (Who moved the blanket? Where did the crayons go?).
Gather three “clues” (a crayon cap, a crumb trail, a photo on your phone).
Let your child be the detective: ask questions, line up suspects (even stuffed animals), and make the final call.
Celebrate with a silly detective badge (paper + tape does the trick).
It’s five minutes of fun that turns observation and problem-solving into play.
