A fantastic cosy mystery illustrated series about a young girl and her assistant yellow cat for readers aged 6+ by the only and only award-winning Goth Girl author Chris Riddell.
Miss Ottoline Brown is an exceptionally inquisitive Mistress of Disguise living in Big City, who also has a diploma from the Who-R-U Academy of Disguise. She can solve any mystery that comes her way, as long as she has her yellow cat assistant by her side at all times, her trusty and faithful Mr Munroe.
Join the dynamic duo as they solve all crime around the Big City, from a string of high-society dog-nappings and jewel thefts, to ghosts haunting school halls and secret poet mysteries. And when Mr Munroe goes suddenly missing, she will journey over, under and on top of the sea to find her hairy best friend, solving that mystery too!
As Ottoline grows older, she also matures as a character, discovering her own unique talents and growing more confident. Children will love growing up with her and Mr Munroe! The friendly text accompanied by illustrations make for a fantastic reading experience, and the books don't have to be read in any particular order, so you can start from whichever title draws you in most!
This is the perfect series for fans of The Sinclair's Mysteries, Murder Most Unladylike, the Mysterious Benedict Society Series, Alice Elcair and the Adventures on Trains series.
