'Hi there, I'm Sherlock Bones.
Who is Sherlock Bones, you ask? Well, I don't like to brag, but my trusty side-kick Watts says I'm the greatest detective in our whole museum.
Don't you, Watts?
Watts...?
You might not be able to hear Watts, because she's technically a stuffed parrot, but I always know what she's thinking.
And right now she's thinking: Can we solve the mystery of the missing Blue Diamond and save the Museum of Natural History, before it's too late?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
When the valuable Royal Blue Diamond goes missing, the fate of the State Natural History Museum rests with Sherlock Bones, an animated, fourth wall breaking frogmouth skeleton exhibited in the institution's halls. Joined by inanimate ringneck parrot Watts and chocolate-loving raccoon Grace, Sherlock moves through suspicions, including a security guard tasked with recovering a toy dinosaur belonging to the museum director's granddaughter. Clarity ensues once Sherlock poses leading questions that engage readers. Simple black-and-white art rendered in minimal panels populates Treml's graphic novel debut, moving the story along rapidly and skewing younger than the intended range. Though Sherlock Bones exhibits charm, the story adds up to a familiar caricature of the famous detective. Ages 8 12.
