Nate the Great books aren't that great. I hated them when I was a kid, yet I would always read them.The endings of the books were always the same, they figured out what or who did it.

This is a funny story about a missing base (in this case, a rubbery, squishy octopus that gradually loses its legs). Nate the great is on the case to find the "base" and once again he uses his powers of deduction and intuition to follow the case to its logical conclusion. And as always, he fortifies himself with pancakes along the way. He and his dog Sludge are always able to get to the bottom of any mystery, no matter how small. We really enjoy this series and look forward to more

Nate the Great is a detective. He does many cases. And Sludge does it with him. Sludge is a dog. And Nate the Great has many friends. And they have many pets. And his friends have problems and Nate the Great solves them. And I love Nate the Great books because they are so great to read.

Nate the great is an excellent sleuth as he searches for second base that has gone missing. It has humor and I like the voice of the author in the Nate the Great series.

The most interesting part of this case is the way Nate the Great found the clue that solved the mystery. If not for Rosamond’s baseball mitt that was stuck on the tree, Nate the Great would have never found the stolen base!
I expected the ending in this one but was not sure of how the writer will present it to the reader. In this book, the writer was successful in showing the clues and breaking the mystery.

Nate the Great is a great book for children who in out of picture books, but not yet ready for big chapter book.
Nate the Great is a detective who solves cases for the kids in his neighborhood. He uses his mind to figure out the clues.
