Miss Cat: The Case of the Curious Canary

by Jean-Luc Fromental, Joëlle Jolivet (illustrator) & translated by Jill Phythian

This is the first volume in a quirky and stylish new graphic novel series. Miss Cat has the air of a noir detective, and there is a little bit of menace in the story. Adults reading for children will enjoy various references, but most of all this is an excellent chapter book for kids who have recently learnt to read by themselves. The second volume is Miss Cat: The Gnome’s Nightmare.

Ages 6-9
