Raymond Chandler meets Lillian Jackson Braun

And in my opinion, neither of them suffer for it. While this book is targeted to a young adult audience--and I highly recommend it--I would also suggest it to cat-loving mystery novel fans as well. Sam, the cat, has a wonderfully funny and unique voice that keeps you turning the pages. It's hard to keep your friends' paws off this book til you're done.

Cat burglaries?

This is the story of Sam, a one-man, err, cat, detective squad. He sleuths for the truth behind the too-many, too recent cat-burgleries. (It's just too ironic, isn't it?) Anyway, the story is about how Sam and his feline friends discover just who is behind those burglaries. The climax occurs when Sam attempts to capture the crook. And with a little help from his friends, and a little ingenuity, the conclusion is wonderful. This is a great story for kids, because it allows them to try to figure out who is at fault. It has a great story line, and it's a lot of fun.

Sam the Cat: Detective

This is a great book! I happened upon it in fifth grade when my school was giving away a bunch of books and started reading it immediately. I was hooked after the first page, and must have read it ten-twenty times in the next year. I loved it every time. Somehow, the book got stuffed into a box and saw a few years in the garage until I found it just recently. I'm now in the tenth grade. I loved it even more than I did when I read it those years ago. The characters are clever, the dialogue is witty, and it can engage children but still has the humor to hook adults. I would recommend this book to anyone! It's one of the best I've ever read.

We enjoyed the book as much as our kid did...

A fast-paced, charming story with a cat detective hero Humphrey Bogart would have loved to play if he had paws and a tail. Truly family reading. We liked it as much as our kid did!

A cute little detective story that is light and funny.

Sure, Same The Cat Detective, is a pretty easy book but it is well written and very cute. If you're looking for something short and easy to help you lighten up a dark mood, Sam the Cat Detective is perfect.
