My Dad the Werewolf

Little Detective Notebook

Clues, guesses & other explanations.

A place for the clue that nobody else noticed. Or the extremely important drawing of a sandwich. A detective needs somewhere to start.

Price and ordering details follow sample approval. Get shop updates.

  • Navy cover with a gold magnifying-glass and paw motif
  • Notice a clue, try a guess, then consider another explanation

  • 20 two-page case files, playful prompts and open drawing pages

Draw, point or tell your theory. A grown-up can help with the words. Works with or without the storybook. Interior previews show the first draft, not a finished manufactured sample.

Images are AI-generated design mockups, not photographs of finished products. See each Fourthwall listing for the printed design, options and product details before ordering. The detective notebook remains in development.

A LOOK INSIDE THE FIRST DRAFT

Big ideas. Plenty of room.

Draw a clue. Try a theory. Then try another. The notebook mixes repeatable case files with playful prompts, open drawing pages and two bonus coloring pages.

These are actual pages from the 64-page draft interior. Layout and print specifications may change after proofing. Select a page to see it larger.

Draft notebook page with a large clue drawing box and space for a case name.

Notice a clue.

A large drawing space, a case name and one little detail to remember.

Draft notebook page with two guess boxes and lines for the current theory.

Try another explanation.

Two guesses and room to say what you think now. Drawing and telling count too.

Bonus coloring page showing a friendly werewolf Dad in his plaid shirt and ragged shorts, holding his mug.

But what if…?

A friendly werewolf Dad to color. An imagined bonus, not a new ending to the book.

Not homework. No perfect answers required.

For ages 5–7, with a grown-up nearby. Use pencils or crayons during your first try. Our free classroom activities and read-aloud ideas stay free.

A FEW USEFUL DETAILS

Before you order.

How will ordering work?

Choose a product and follow its Fourthwall link for options and secure checkout. The notebook is still a preview. Books and merchandise use separate checkouts and may ship separately.

How are the designs priced?

Merchandise is printed to order. Prices are in US dollars; adult plus sizes cost extra. Shipping and any tax are calculated at checkout. Purchases help support C. J. McGuire’s book projects.

Will the book come with my order?

Books and merchandise are separate purchases; no book is included with these products. Meet My Dad the Werewolf or explore Super Seamus & Friends for excerpts and publication updates.

What about sizes, shipping and returns?

Check each Fourthwall listing for sizes, materials, care instructions and the size guide before choosing. Production and delivery take time; use the checkout estimate when planning a gift. See Fourthwall’s Returns & FAQ for current terms.

Do I need to buy something to use the activities?

No. The parent ideas and educator resources stay free, whether you buy anything or not.
