Inspector Dewey
Written by Kristen Heimerl
Illustrated by Irene Bofill
Children's Picture Book
August 2015
My name is Dewey--Inspector Dewey.
I live in the big green house on Hampshire
Avenue with my family: Thumper, Lily, and Anna. I am the Big Cat—responsible
for keeping everyone safe and in order. I do this quite well, in spite of the
fact that managing my family is like, well, herding cats!
Mostly our life is peaceful. But one night it
wasn’t. That was the night the bad guy showed up on our block. Of course, I
knew exactly how to outsmart the outlaw, but—miserable mullet!—would Anna and
the police understand my instructions?
To find out how the adventure ended, you’ll
have to read my book. But I’ll give you a hint: there’s a reason I’m called
Inspector Dewey.

Review: I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review
Absolutely adorable. Yep, that describes Inspector Dewey to a tee. Charming characters, a fun plot, and beautiful illustrations make this children's story a winner in my book. The copy I received for review is huge and very high quality-- and this is a galley copy. I'm assuming the read deal is even nicer.
The story was fun and exciting. I loved that the kitties' owner helped them stop the crime. How cool is that? So many books have the animals working together, but the adults are always in the dark. Not in this story. Owner Anna crawls right along with Dewey, Thumper, and Lily to help the police catch a criminal.
I loved the illustrations. They were soft and beautiful. The cats just looked so happy :) I love reading a book that leaves me smiling!
