Overview
The Kate on the Case series by Hannah Peck follows young reporter-in-training Kate and her endearing mouse sidekick Rupert as they untangle whodunnits across three warm, witty adventures. Blending gentle mystery with laugh-out-loud humour and charming illustrations, this three-book paperback set suits confident young readers moving into their first proper chapter book series — perfect for bedtime, classroom reading corners, or a thoughtful gift.
About the Books
In Kate on the Case, Kate and Rupert board a train to visit Kate's mum in the Arctic, only for a string of baffling thefts to break out along the way — ginger nuts, gymnastics trophies, and ancient scrolls all vanish, with suspicion falling on a mysterious fellow passenger before a delicious twist resolves the case. The Call of the Silver Wibbler takes the duo deep into the jungle in search of a legendary creature, alongside the quarrelsome Bird Brigade, where scepticism and Kate's sharp reporting instincts collide in a story full of feathers and friendship. In The Headline Hoax, Kate's big break arrives via a VIP invitation to shadow her journalism idol at a major newspaper — but she soon uncovers that not everything there is as honest as it seems, prompting a fast-paced mystery about integrity and standing up for the truth. Across all three books, Hannah Peck's warm, comic writing and distinctive illustrations bring Kate's world vividly to life, rewarding readers with satisfying, age-appropriate mysteries that are never too scary or too simple. Each story stands alone but shares Kate and Rupert's growing confidence, making the set ideal for reading in order or dipping into individually. The recurring cast, consistent tone, and illustrated pages make this a series that reluctant and enthusiastic readers alike tend to return to again and again.
