Nurseryland's best (and only) private eye has been involved in many cases surrounding nursery rhyme and fairy tale victims, but this is the most baffling of all.
How does one find a person who isn't there? This is the daunting task that Nathaniel P. Osgood III faces when he reluctantly accepts the case.
Searching throughout Nurseryland, Osgood makes the discovery that the little man he is looking for has not been at many places. Unreliable witnesses who claim to have not seen the little man who wasn't there all over town add to Osgood's frustration. In desperation, Osgood resorts to deception to resolve the case to his client's satisfaction.
