Squeak-Squeak the Martian disappears from Mr. Boomschimdt’s circus. Freddy the pig is called in to find him, but even he isn’t expecting that the other Martians don’t want him to help. In disguise as an old man, Mr. Arquebus, Freddy organizes a Martian baseball team. But when Mr. Anderson, a.k.a. Mr. Eha (the dangerous house haunting real estate man of Freddy Goes Camping fame), shows up at the games, Freddy knows something’s up.

I loved this Freddy book and couldn’t put it down. Absolutely hilarious! Freddy gets to be in disguise for almost the whole story. The baseball games are funny, too. Freddy uses his favorite Irish woman disguise, as he always does in the best Freddy books. The A. B. I. returns, and that usually spells a good Freddy mystery.

Mrs. Bean’s long-lost older brother Aaron Doty comes to the Bean farm to visit her and to collect his share of a large inheritance, which, if the Beans give it to him, will ruin the farm. Freddy is sure that Mr. Doty isn’t who he says he is, and when Mr. Garble comes back to town, Freddy knows something is up. But Freddy must also go to high school so that he can play football in the big game between Centerboro and Tushville.

I love the way Freddy always gets himself into problems like this. Rest assured, though. Freddy is still the pig from the previous books and always manages to get out of them.
