Basil of Baker Street (Library Edition)

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!

Eve Titus (1908-2002) was the author of many children's books, including those about the French cheese-tasting mouse Anatole. Of Basil of Baker Street, Adrian M. Conan Doyle wrote to the author, "It is simply a wonderful creation, and I can assure you that my father would have revelled in every page." The book was also made into a Disney movie, The Great Mouse Detective, in 1986. Numerous Sherlockian collectors prize the Basil mysteries, which include Basil of Baker Street, Basil and the Cave of Cats (originally published as Basil and the Pygmy Cats), Basil in Mexico, Basil in the Wild West, and Basil and the Lost Colony.
