When a neighbour's dog goes missing, Damian and his gang of detective apprentices are called in to help find it. First they try posters - but for some reason the newsagent is not happy that they have super-glued their hand-drawn posters to his window. Then they try a decoy. And when that doesn't work, they resort to 'rescuing' dogs that have been left on the street, and taking them back to Damian's shed. As angry dog owners bear down on them, very luckily the original missing dog turns up!

My 11 year old, dog-loving daugther lapped this up in an hour, with a few chortles along the way, and gave it 9 out 10. She's not book crazy so it's nice to have something this length that doesn't become a nag or a chore! More in the series too, which is great.

Barbara Mitchelhill's "How to be a detective" is one of the most dog-eared books in the library. As a volunteer librarian I wanted to understand it's popularity. What better way than reading the aforementioned and then "Damian Drooth Supersleuth Spycatcher" This is another book in the Damian Drooth series.
This time Damian and his gang discover why a local inventor is unhappy and how he can be helped.
"Spycatcher" is funny.I loved Damian's assumptions about potential criminals. Watch out if your eyes are too close together.
The illustrations by Tony Ross add to the characterisation and the story is short enough for even young reluctant readers to finish.
The kids in my school are lucky. I have bought the series and after reading them all myself, will add them to the library for creasing, tattering and general over-use.

Books like this are rare; short and funny yet they tell a proper, satisfying story. A lot of 'funny' books are funny but the humour masks a lame plot. The Supersleuth series avoids that trap. Damian Drooth is not only an ace detective he's an ace read. Love his spellings! Perfect for kids who lack confidence. Great illustrations by Tony Ross, too.
