Items related to Sly the Sleuth and the Pet Mysteries
There are some strange new pets in Sly's neighborhood: a cat on a diet that keeps getting fatter, a fish that seems angry at its owner, and a peculiar pet named Wilson that suddenly disappears!
Only Sly the Sleuth can solve these mysteries. Grade-schooler by day, private detective by afternoon, Sly (a.k.a Sylvia) uses her sharp wits and reasoning skills to get to the bottom of these odd goings-on.
Donna Jo Napoli teams up with her son, Robert Furrow, and illustrator Heather Maione to create a heroine who is not only smart and spunky, but also tremendously funny.

About the Author:
From Booklist:
Donna Jo Napoli is the author of many books for children and young adults includingThe Magic Circle, Zel, and Stones in Water. She has won numerous awards, including the Golden Kite Award and the Sydney Taylor Award for Stones in Water. She lives in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania.
Gr. 2-4. Why is Kate's cat so fat? Why does Jack's fish hate him? Why is Melody's dog acting crazy? In the first of a simple chapter-book series about detective Sylvia, "Sly" solves the mysteries of the pets on her block, dyes her hair blue (short-term), and talks to her cat, Taxi. Some of the detective work is a bit convoluted. But Sly's first-person account makes her friendship and bickering with the kids, grown-ups, and pets on the street as much fun as the mysteries, and Maione's lively black-and-white pictures capture the neighborhood characters and the animals they love.
