This Portuguese book is not a new title currently in print, but it is a new format I had never encountered until now, so I want
ed to share. I have some books by this publisher (Verbo) but I think they were from the 1990s and have totally different covers and internal illustrations, and feature a white spine. This book appears to be an earlier incarnation of "Os inqueritos de Nancy" published circa 1983. It has a yellow spine and recycles the Rudy Nappi cover but has original internal illustrations (uncredited). I like this one of the Tophams whining at the attorney's office.
The back cover indicates that at least the first 4 titles may have come in this format.

I don't have all the details on these newly located Arabic editions - I am awaiting delivery of my copies and will provide more information as it becomes available. They were probably originally published around the time of the release of the movie (circa 2007) and are still in print today. 4 or 5 titles from the Girl Detective series were released. This cover appears to be Lights, Camera.
Predictably, the next one in the series is #5 The Secret of Shadow Ranch.
The release date is May 2009.
The fourth book released by Tsogen is Lilac Inn (naturally!). Although web sites indicate that it was published in November 2008, it was not available at Christmastime last year.
