Superwitzig, spannend, herrlich gezeichnet und großartig zum Vorlesen. Die deutsche Ausgabe hat eine Stanzung im Deckel und ist wirklich liebevoll und aufwendig gestaltet. Superbuch!

This is a wonderfully fun and charming children’s book with a unique main character. Monsieur Mustard, the tiny but very confident detective mouse, is full of personality, and his dramatic arrival and unexpected mishaps make the story really entertaining from the start. My daughter and I found it absolutely hilarious and loved the unique style of illustration.

Such a fun mystery for confident young readers! Helps that the shop where I work is featured and so fun to have another book set in Bath!

3.5 Geronimo Stilton meets Hercule Poirot.
The onomatopoeia and comic strips were engaging and I enjoyed the sleuth but found the motive relatively weak.
