Lenny and Jake find a stolen baby in a telephone kiosk and believe that a cuff-link, caught up in the baby's shawl, is a clue to the villain's identity. The ensuing chase leads the boys into more and more trouble, involving even the Director of Education himself. This is the fourteenth story in Hazel Townson's popular LENNY AND JAKE series. The recent SIGN OF THE CRAB was praised by JUNIOR BOOKSHELF- 'A nicely paced, well judged, realistic adventure. '
