Woof: A Bowser and Birdie Novel by Spencer Quinn
4.0
#1 Birdie & Bowser
Woof is the start of a new series by Spencer Quinn, author of the Chet & Bernie mysteries. It’s narrated by Bowser who sounds, perhaps not surprisingly, very much like Chet – that is, dumb but smart, hilarious, & loveable. His new mistress is 11-year-old Birdie who lives on the Louisiana coast with her Grammy. When a prize stuffed marlin is stolen from Grammy’s bait and tackle shop, Birdie and Bowser take on the case.
This is a charming start to what is no doubt an excellent series, but I do prefer the adult version (Chet & Bernie).
4 stars
