  <default_description>An exciting new character-based mini series for young readers. Introducing Miss Ottoline Brown, an exceptionally inquisitive Mistress of Disguise, and her partner in crime, Mr Munroe. No puzzle is ever too tricky for the two of them to solve . . . Ottoline lives in a stylish apartment in Big City with a small hairy creature called Mr Munroe. Together they look after the Brown familys eclectic collections - and dabble in a spot of detective work. So they are the first to the scene of the crime when a string of high society dog-nappings and jewel thefts hits Big City. Ottoline (who luckily has a diploma from the Who-R-U Academy of Disguise) and Mr Munroe go undercover - and expose an ingenious scam masterminded by furry feline crook, the Yellow Cat. A quirky mystery-adventure which is perfectly packaged and highly collectable.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[This is one of those hybrid graphic novels -- it's more a regular novel with many pictures (some whole and double-page spreads) as opposed to pictures with word balloons.  Quick even for an intermediate reader, with an odd but appealing character called Mr. Munroe of indeterminate nature -- human in...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77742106">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I can see why kids will like it, but I found the mixture of text and illustration a bit frenetic.  Perhaps I am the wrong generation.  I also thought the mystery was pretty lame, although on par with other mystery series for that age.  I'll be glad to offer it as an option to the Wimpy-Kid-obssessed...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/50546297">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Took me about 45 minutes to read. Very very cute. Reminiscent of &quot;The Willoughbys&quot; - same sort of humor and illustrations. Really enjoyed this and I think younger grade kids would find it quite enjoyable as well. Unlike &quot;The Willoughbys&quot; the humor is intended for children.

    <body><![CDATA[I thought this one was YA but it's definitely more children's. But the illustrations (also done by the author) are charming and the &quot;mystery&quot; is quick-paced and fun. I'm looking forward to the next installment. Ottoline and Mr. Muddles are for keeps!]]></body>
