Fun series

I liked this book because I like parrots and the other birds in the book. I also liked this book because I like mystery books.

Grade 1 to 3

I did not like this book because I do not like it when someone calls somebody "stupid." I also did not like the part when somebody in the book called Olivia Sharpe "stupid." I enjoyed this book because I liked the part when Olivia fixed it by making friends with him.

Clever and creative, and funny. "Sometimes being rich helps. Sometimes it doesn't." I like that there's a distinction made between being a detective, an agent for secrets, and a spy. I like that nothing is ever as easy as it seems at first, but Olivia persists.

Best if read in order, but not necessary. I wish there were more.

(same review for each)

i love it because it was about a mystery.

Olivia has competition as a new spy is in town and about to solve the very case she's been hired to protect. Confusion and laughs abound in this fun story about Nate the Great's cousin.

Our girls (especially our youngest) love the Nate the Great books by Marjorie Weinman Sharmat. And we enjoyed the somewhat bizarre tales when he interacts with his cousin, Olivia, like Nate the Great Talks Turkey and Nate the Great, San Francisco Detective, and Nate the Great on the Owl Express. So we thought we'd check out this series, too.

Overall, I think this series is starting to grow on me. I liked this story better than The Princess of the Fillmore Street School, but I still wasn't terribly impressed with it. The introduction of her competition was an interesting twist and I had to emphasize the importance of not peeking to ruin the surprise (after all, Christmas is four days away.) Our girls liked the story, and as we're almost to the end of the Nate the Great books, I was glad there was another series with a connection to Nate. I still get annoyed that Olivia is as rich as Eloise, but older and with a chauffeur at her disposal. I'm sure we'll read the last of these four books, but I'm glad there are only four in the series.

Very fun book

Olivia is Nate the Great's cousin. My daughter loves these stories
