Bow Wow: A Bowser and Birdie Novel

Spencer Quinn's dog narrated books are pure pleasure. I'm a seventy year old adult and, although the intended audience for Birdie and Bowser's adventures is much, much younger, I wouldn't want to miss the delight I always feel when reading and listening.

I like anything by Spencer Quinn. I have read all of his Chet and Bernie series and am current on Bowser and Birdie as well. I have already passed Bow Wow on to my 11 year old grandson. If you like kids and dogs, Bow Wow is a good read for all ages. As usual Spencer Quinn's carefully crafted plots keep me engaged and guessing right up to the end.

I've read all of his Chet and Bernie detective agency books and await their newest arrival. Thought I'd try the Birdie and Bowser series to give to my 12 year old granddaughters. I naturally read it before giving and found it to be as delightful as Chet and Bernie, and toned down a bit on language and situations, making it more suitable for children.

I love this series. I especially love the relationship between Birdie and her grandmother. I love to see how Birdie is growing up and learning about the big world outside her smaller one. Looking forward to her and Bowser having a big city adventure. Also would love to see a crossover with Chet and Bernie.

Some readers may find parts to be too intense for younger children, but I think it's perfect for its target audience, and then some. Sure seemed shorter than 300 pages. Great addition to my Quinn library.

I bought this for my daughter how needed a mystery book to read for school, and it was perfect! She loved another book by this author, Arf, so she had to buy another book to add to her book collection. She absolutely loved this book and the suspense it held throughout the whole story. She will definitely be reading more books by this author!

always fun to visit with these characters and to see Birdie and Bowser again. Lots of rich back ground to set the stage and very human and non-human insights as well. Will always read Spencer Quinn who makes me see the world from that unique perspective!

The story line was interesting, but I don’t care for stories where the climax and any other loose ends wrap up within the last 4-5 pages of the book.
