Sixteen original classic Sherlock Holmes adventures

Reviews

I'd walk a million miles in tight boots just to read his letters to the milkman

—— Stephen Fry

This series is the 'must read' of the summer. The books' travel-based themes also make them ideal for holiday reading

—— Jacob Hope , Achuka

The Jack Stalwart books have been a great weapon in the booksellers' armoury for hooking reluctant readers. Now re-launched, they are set to reach a much wider audience of young readers who want a piece of the secret-agent action

—— Publishing News

Beautifully atmospheric, the trees whispering and waving in the golden and green light, with lively, eccentric illustrations of a cheeky-looking, rotund Stanley and the bizarre Dr Moon, this has the feel of a classic children's tale, whilst having its own ebullient originality

—— Literary Review

Stanley's adventures are thoroughly absorbing and enjoyable, and the sympathetic illustrations will encourage slightly less confident readers

—— The School Librarian

A mystery and adventure book combined

—— Newcastle Evening Chronicle

Hillarious

—— Yorkshire Evening Post

I think this book is the funniest book I've ever read!

—— Evan Jones , South Wales Argus

This book really makes you giggle

—— Brandon Nichols , School Review
