Ten-year-old Minnie is footloose and fancy-free for the summer. With no homework to do and no school schedule to adhere to, she decides to set up a detective agency to solve crimes, real or imagined. Lubotsky actually sounds credibly childlike, reading with innocence and exuberance. Her excitement about every "clue" she unearths conveys realistic youthfulness. However, many cats and characters make this story complicated for 4-6th graders. A.G.H. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine
