And what a cat! Grey suit, grey shoes, mind like a mouse trap. Sam's the name, Sam the Cat. And Sam's on the case of the burglarized jade necklace. And a lot of other stolen stuff, too, the work of a cat burglar, which is a person who steals stuff and is almost as agile as a cat.This is such a fun book. Technically, I'm a little older than its target demographic, but I enjoyed every word. (I especially liked the words, "airless like the inside of a cow." That just gets me giggling whenever I think of it.) I've read a few adult hardboiled detective books, and this author gets the tone just right, only for a slightly younger crowd.If you're an adult (notice I didn't say "grown up") reading this for yourself, you'll whip through this book in just a few hours, if that. I suspect this would be a good book to read aloud to children, but I can't prove it since I don't have any. I would have enjoyed this as a ten year old, though. The author doesn't talk down to her audience, though occasionally she has Sam explain certain terms, like "cat burglar" to other cats just in case the younger readers get confused. It's subtly done, though.I really like this book and can't wait to read the other two ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A classic caper *by M***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 30, 2017* Just finished reading this out loud to my partner. We're both... well, let's just say we've got a few gray hairs. This would be delightful for a kid, and especially good for a grown-up to read out loud to a kid, since the story honors the great literary detective traditions, which the kids won't necessarily catch but will keep the grown-ups amused along the way. It doesn't exactly contain the line "She had legs that went from here to there & back again" but it comes pretty close! We enjoyed it very much. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cats live large! A clever and enjoyable read for young readers, old readers and cats... *by M***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 24, 2015* What a clever, well-done mystery with a "cat" of characters that will make your heart purr... Sorry, I just loved it. Not as simple as the "recommended age" would imply - I'm 52 and I devoured this and all the series. Wonderful character description, interesting plot, absolutely satisfying for cat lovers, and plenty of applied problem-solving opportunities for the young readers. Stewart also embeds authentic friendships responsibility, and morals throughout.
