Marjorie Shamat: Nate the Great Talks Turkey

By JULIETTE ROSSANT A good detective has to eat in order to think. His sidekick needs to eat in order to use his sleuthing gifts. Nate the Great, the famous infallible detective feasts on pancakes, his dog, Sludge likes a good bone, and his cousin Olivia Sharp, who is also a famous detective, munches a watercress sandwich in her private jet on her way to join her cousin on a Turkey case. Nate the Great Talks Turkey is perfect for Thanksgiving.. This is a story where the kids do the work (Olivia does have a grown-up chauffeur, but that's as far as it goes for adults in the book). It turns out that Sludge is the first one on the job, but ….Super Chef won't reveal who finds the turkey, except to say that food, (what else?) is involved. Nate the Great Talks Turkey(A Yearling Book 2006), part of the Nate the Great series (and Olivia Sharp series) by Marjorie Weinman Shamat and Mitchell Shamat is full of wise, confident children, who use their powers of deduction and clever observations to solve innocent mysteries that face their friends. The pictures by Jody Wheeler help keep kids turning the pages. Gobble, Gobble.
