Sam the Cat Detective Sam the Cat Mysteries No 1 Linda Stewart 9780967507347 Books

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.

Delightful book
There are 3 books in the Sam the Cat Mysteries. Each one is a must-read. Clean plot excellent for children, equally eye-popping for adults. Beautifully written with witty humor and dialogue based on characters famous from the big screen. These will stay in my permament library.
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.
I bought this book not realizing that it was a children's book. I read it anyhow, and enjoyed it thoroughly! It has captured the 'tough detective' genre very well and I think that most good readers would like it. Most adults, if they preview what their kids read, would be amused with the take off of the 'Humphrey Bogart type detective'.
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. Please keep writing, Linda Stewart!
If you loved the classics like "Maltese Falcon" and would like your kids to enjoy them as well, Linda Spencer's Sam, the Cat Detective novels are the best way to get them to loving mysteries. Sam, a grey alley cat with a heart of gold, is a private detective. Okay, sometimes his logic is fuzzy--he is a cat, after all. And his 'bank account' has an odor---he takes payment in fish. But, Sam always gets his man whether it be human or feline--and sometimes his woman, too.

In this book, Sam is approached by Brighid (Miss Wonderful) to help her find her lost kitten. She's of course, a beautiful liar. Sam discovers the kitten is a valuable Maltese from a line of cats dating back to the 1500's and the plot just gets thicker from there.

Even for adults, this is an enjoyable read and a quick one at just 133 pages. I highly recommend Sam and hope to see another novel by Stewart soon!
He walked into my life like a... well, cat. 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
