A fun, fresh cover look for the first title in Chris Riddell’s excellent Ottoline series. Packed with gorgeous black-and-white illustrations throughout, Ottoline and the Yellow Cat is perfect for kids aged 7+!

Introducing Miss Ottoline Brown, an exceptionally inquisitive Mistress of Disguise, and her partner in crime, Mr Munroe. No puzzle is ever too tricky for the two of them to solve . . .

Ottoline lives in a stylish apartment in Big City with a small hairy creature called Mr Munroe. Together they look after the Brown family’s eclectic collections – and dabble in a spot of detective work. So they are the first to the scene of the crime when a string of high-society dog-nappings and jewel thefts hits Big City.

It’s up to Ottoline and Mr Munroe to go undercover – and expose an ingenious scam masterminded by furry feline crook, the Yellow Cat . . .

Winner of the Nestle Prize, and crammed with black-and-white illustrations, Ottoline and the Yellow Cat is perfect for young and reluctant readers.

Ottoline and the yellow cat is an interesting story. The characters are Ottoline, Mr. Munroe, the yellow cat and Ottoline's Services.

I like all of this book especially Ottolines scrap book.I havnt got all of the Ottoline books yet but my mum said she would get me more for Christmas.This in my point of view should be for people aged 6+.When I read it I was eight but then on the fourth of August I turned nine and read it when I was nine.I am still nine.

I think this book is funny. It makes me laugh because Mr. Munroe is very silly but he is brave. In this story, my favourite character is the bear. He helps Ottoline catch the thief - the yellow cat. I think I would recommend to others. This book tells you need to be brave of all the things.

I thought that the book was amazing because Ottoline is very clever, I like Ottoline best because she is very clever, It interested me because it was very detective kind, I would recommend this to someone else because it is very sneaky and funny.

I like the book because Ottoline and her friend, Mr Munroe trapped a cat that is a burgler. They tried to discover how to track down the cat when he was stealing people's things. At the end the cat was sent to the zoo. The plot was very interesting. My favourite character is Ottoline because she is funny and smart.

My favourite part was when the yellow cat came in and things fell on top of her! It was so funny!! I really loved it. My fav person was ( and is ) definitely Ottoline. I would recommend this amazingly written book to anybody who loves adventures, fun and the author who wrote it, never gives any information about mysterious things that happen in the hilarious book. But to end this revue, all I want to say is that I love it loads.

Ottoline and the yellow cat is a really good book.This is because Ottoline and her monster are always solving mysteries. In this book lots of things go missing and it is Ottolines job to find who is the thief.

I think you should read this book because Ottoline is a detective and live with with Mr Munroe who is really hairy and comes from a bog in Norway. She meets a villainous cat who has a dog club. Her dog club helps with her villainy.
