Detective Catz and the Missing Nut Synopsis
A confidence boosting and self-affirming tale showing that being kind along the way is just as important as personal success.
Catz is determined to prove himself as a detective – but nothing seems to be going his way. He thinks he has failed, but he has also failed to notice all the good he has done along the way!
Luckily our hero does not give up, and, cheered on by his friends, a combination of new evidence and new determination enable him to focus and fulfil his dream!
All the fun of being a detective with magnifying glasses, searching for clues, hiding, and mystery solving in a book that teaches about patience, determination and self-confidence in an uplifting way.
