Basil of Baker Street
Basil of Baker Street | Eve Titus
9 posts | 9 read | 1 reading | 3 to read
Named one of "13 Detective Book Series You Obsessed over as a Kid" by Buzzfeed.com and the inspiration for a hit Disney film, the masterful Great Mouse Detective series is now available to a whole new generation of readers! Basil--the famous sleuth of mousedom--lives in the cellar of Sherlock Holmes's house. A devoted admirer of the great detective, he has learned his craft by listening at the feet of Holmes himself. But will it be enough to help Basil solve his most baffling mystery yet? The Mystery of the Missing Twins is one of the strangest cases in Basil's career. With only a few crumbs of clues with which to find answers, how is he ever going to figure out where Angela and Agatha are being kept--and, of course, who mouse-napped them! Will Basil's mouse sleuthing skills be up to the task of finding the twins before it's too late?

Cute mystery featuring the mouse equivalents of Holmes and Watson. Not sure how young readers now like these, but I enjoyed it. I‘m curious to see how my daughter likes it.

TheLibrarian This is also a great movie! 6y
ravenlee @TheLibrarian reading this reminded me of my childhood! I don‘t know if I saw the movie, but I remember it coming out, and I read one of these books when they reissued them for the movie. 6y
rabbitprincess The movie is one of my favourite Disney movies! 6y

Chibi Sherlock: "Since Watson is out fighting with the chip and pin machine, and Mrs. Hudson has taken my skull (something about trick or treaters) you'll have to do."

Hamster: *nervous squeaking*

Eeyore: "I knew he wouldn't pick me."

Schon mal Sherlock Holmes als Maus gesehen? Nein? Dann wird es vielleicht mal Zeit. 😉 Ein kleiner Roman, der Holmes aus einer ganz anderen Perspektive zeigt.

Ever seen Sherlock Holmes as a mouse? No? Maybe now it's the right time for that. 😉 A little book, which shows Holmes in a completely unusual perspective.

I had a vague nudging that this was a reissue, but I do not remember the books OR the movie from my childhood. Looking forward to exploring Basil's adventures with my young detective. 🤓

While working yesterday I came across this book! I had no idea it was book. It was my Favorite Disney movie when I was a little bit of human. And NOW I find that it was a book first. Bought and read within a 24 hours. Love love love...The Great Mouse Detective

I will forgive the movie title rebranding to have a hardcover copy of Basil of Baker Street in my hands.
