Great Shelby Holmes by Elizabeth Eulberg
5.0
This book is a delightful spin on the great Sherlock Holmes!
John Watson arrives in NYC, looking for a fresh start. Following his parent's divorce and his mother's retirement from military life, John seeks to find new friends in the Big Apple. Little did he know he'd get more than he bargained for in Shelby Holmes, a precocious, observant, and slightly awkward 9 year old detective that lives in his building.
I loved the development of these two as a team and really enjoyed how the author brought Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's character alive in a new way for the younger audience. Brava!
