She's happy and she's clearly loved and in contact with her parents via postcards sent on behalf of their explorer's club. Krenimo polako u Velegrad gde nas u zgradi Bibernici cekaju Otolina koja voli da resava teske zagonetke , smislja lukave planove,da sljapka barama i sakuplja svasta,i njen priljatelj gospodin Manro koji je mali , cupav i ne voli kisu niti da se ceslja. It's been three months since I taught this book to my group of second graders and they STILL reference it during discussions of entirely unrelated books! In this particular story, Ottoline becomes involved in finding out who has been stealing jewelry and why dogs keep ending up missing. She is also interested in solving mysteries and keeping collections (like her Odd Shoe Collection and her Postcard Collection).

A glorious adventure fantasy told in words and loads of Chris Riddell’s fabulous pictures, this tells how Ottoline, who loves solving puzzles, and her friend Mr Munro, a cat with a distinct personality and a number of foibles, set out to resolve the mystery of the lapdogs who are being stolen from all over town. The characters are well-drawn but they don't yet have much personality in the story itself, though I know this definitely improves as the series goes on.I definitely recommend this series though, as it's the perfect amount of fun, the illustrations really are amazing, and this is a nice little intro to Ottoline's adventures. He is the author of the bestselling Goth Girl and Ottoline series and co-creator of the much loved The Edge Chronicles.
