Review & Giveaway: Henry The Doggie Detective (Book)

** This giveaway has ended. Please be sure to check out our latest giveaways by clicking on the word GIVEAWAY in the label cloud in our right sidebar **

Henry The Doggie Detective is a new series of children’s mystery books based on a cute Beagle/Bassett Hound. He solves mysteries for his family and friends in the neighborhood.

A series of 12 books is being developed with 2 books already released: The Missing Cat Mystery and The Christmas Lights Mystery. The third book, Ghost In The House, is in production with an anticipated publication date of Summer 2009.

I obviously had to manage to get the books away from my daughter so that I could even read them and write this review. She loved the illustrations of the books…especially Henry himself! The books are extremely colorful. In The Christmas Lights Mystery, the Christmas decorations are being tampered with. In The Missing Cat Mystery, Henry must solve the case to find where the missing cat, Fergus, went. I love that Henry is a character based on one of the writer’s actual dogs.

The books are written for children ages 3-7 and are available in Louisville, Lexington, Midway, Cincinnati, Atlanta and Alexandria, Virginia. (Being the Kentucky girl I am, obviously I love the location.) You can purchase a copy HERE for $15.95.

You can find out more about the books from their site HERE.

    These sound like just the thing for Noah. That’s why he like the Magic Treehouse books…because of the mystery element.
