Reviews

A fun spin on the classic tales of Sherlock Holmes, though far from Victorian London where the original stories were set ... Genius * The Week Junior * A brilliant reimagining of a classic * Little London * Supported by great illustrations throughout, the narrative gives a humorous nod to the original Holmes * The Book Activist * Mystery fans may try to solve the case, but most, like John, will enjoy just hanging out with Shelby to see what happens next * Booklist *
