Sherlock Bones and the Missing Cheese

Sherlock Bones and the Missing Cheese

by Susan Stevens Crummel

Illustrated by Dorothy Donohue




Oh no!  The cheese is missing from the Dell!  Who can help?  Why, Sherlock Bones of course!  This brilliant bloodhound uses all five senses to track down the well-known thief. You'll have to read the book to find out which famous fairy tale villain  stole the big cheese!  Children familiar with The Farmer in the Dell will recognize the characters from the classic children's song while they help Sherlock Bones solve the case and save the day.

Sherlock Bones is a cute story, and I love the cut-paper artwork by Dorothy Donohue.  Her talent truly brings the story to life.  Visit her website to view more of her phenomenal creations: http://dorothydonohue.com/.  I could see this book being used by younger grades when learning the five senses.
