WARNING: Reading May Be Hazardous To Your Health
The principal of Kill and Gwen's school promised to spend the morning on the roof if the kids read one thousand books during their reading marathon -- and they did! Now he's on the roof, and he's going to read an original science fiction story Gwen wrote.
But he could fall off the roof is he doesn't stop sneezing. Is it a coincidence that Gwen's story is about aliens who live on roofs and make humans sneeze? Fletcher knows that Gwen would never pull a dangerous practical joke just to make her story come try. But can he prove it before Gwen's in big trouble?

Grade 2-4-Here, basset hound Fletcher and his flea sidekick Jasper solve a new case. Fletcher's 10-year-old owner, Jill, and her friend Gwen are enthusiastic about the upcoming reading marathon. Their principal, Mr. Leonard, has promised to read aloud on the school's roof when students have read 1000 books, and he agrees to read Gwen's story, "The Mystery on the Roof." But when he starts sneezing uncontrollably and cannot read, Gwen is suspected of foul play. The animal detectives save the day when Fletcher correctly suspects that Alice, a cat jealous of her family's new baby, is on the roof and that the principal is allergic to felines. Fletcher's narration includes many humorous observations about human behavior. The comic line drawings and decorative typeface (indicating Alice "singing the blues") hit the right note. A solid selection.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
As a 4th grade teacher, I use a lot of Elizabeth Levy's books in my classroom. My students absolutely LOVE the "Something Queer..." stories. They get very wrapped up in the mysteries and they enjoy the Gwen and Jill characters. There is ONE character that they love above all others, and that is- Fletcher the Bassett Hound.
We were all very excited to learn that Elizabeth and Mordicai would be working on books told from Fletcher's point of view. This book is delightful and funny--a great read aloud. I would also reccommend, "A Hare Raising Tale" and ALL of the Something Queer books. Not just for kids, but for dog lovers and mystery lovers alike!!! |
