Detecticat and the Bullglar – vol. 1

Humorous
Mystery

A laugh-out-loud series of detective stories for early readers, who will enjoy recognising the hidden clues before Detecticat does!

There’s nothing better than a nice investigation to put Detecticat in a good mood! The Chicken Police warn him of a burglary at Mr Topaz’s jewellery shop, and while the forensics waddle collects evidence, Detecticat questions the witnesses up and down the port. Thanks to his feline intuition and the help of the wise Mysticat, the culprits won’t go unpunished for long!

  • Engaging detective stories for early readers, featuring small, humorous mysteries that captivate children’s curiosity and encourage independent reading.
  • Clues clearly visible to readers: each story provides clear, easy-to-spot clues that enable young readers to anticipate solutions before the protagonist, Detecticat, does.

From the same series (Detecticat): Crime and Fisherment, The Mastiff Always Plays Twice, The Window Overlooking the Pigsty, Arsenic and Old Wolves, Big Octopus in Little China, The Caterpillar Beyond the Hedge, The Sunday Weasel.
