I liked the pile of sparkly jewels that the cat had hidden to steal. The sausage dog in the cafe is my favourite!

**SPOILER** This book was funny but Daddy and I both thought it was silly that no one realised the cat was the burglar in disguise…

My favorite character is Slippery Sam. He is a very good dog. He is brave and not greedy.

It was full of mystery. My favourite character was the cat burglar because she was playing a trick on everyone.
