School Library Journal Review

Gr 1-4 --Miniature detective Nate the Great has yet another case to solve. Rosamond turns a phone message from Pip's mother into a music lesson with a secret meaning and Nate steps in to solve the mystery. The most important clue--that the message is a musical note--has Nate baffled. Although led astray by a singing dog, harmonizing cats, and a band concert, he manages to meet his deadline and solve the riddle. Cleverly written, using clear and simple language, the Sharmats have created another surefire hit. Simont's color and black-and-white watercolors reinforce and enrich the verbal clues and the humor in the text. This is a series that's perfect for readers who have moved beyond controlled vocabulary beginning books but who are not yet ready for chapter books. --Pamela K. Bomboy, Chesterfield County Pub .

Horn Book Review

Nate the Great has not lost his touch or his audience. Inspired by pancakes and the company of his amiable dog, he solves one more case. The illustrations accent the humor of the text, which is delivered in a rapid-fire, deadpan style. From HORN BOOK 1990, (c) Copyright 2010.
