A beautiful respect to books and the power of community when we have books in hand together. Less of a mystery and really just Nate going around with his friends appreciating the aesthetic of being a bookworm.

Very smart. And Nate is really sensible!

When an Evil Page Monster begins ripping, tearing, and shredding page in innocent books, Nate the Great (and Sludge) take the case. But soon they have more than one case on their hands (paws) and not many clues. Will Nate be able to pull this mystery off?

It's been quite a while since I read a Nate the Great book, and I have to say this was an enjoyable read.

And it has my new favorite joke:

Why did the elephant use his trunk as a bookmark?
That way he nose where he stopped reading!

I read this book to my niece and was reminded of the good times I had reading this series of books as a child. It is an intelligent, humorous story, with fun characters. I like how Nate the Great works to gather information and solve the mystery so the reader can try to figure out the clues at the same time. I think for full enjoyment I would have needed to be a little more familiar with the Nate the Great characters, but it is certainly a stand-alone book. It was a good book to read aloud, and well laid out into small chapters.
