About the Author:
Elizabeth Levy says:
Fletcher Rules!
There are three things I love -- dogs, mysteries, and salami. I also am fascinated and moved by the ways we love our pets and they love us. I first wrote about Fletcher, a salami-eating basset hound, in the Something Queer Mysteries more than thirty years ago. But those books were Gwen and Jill's mysteries. I always wondered what Fletcher thought about things. I love hearing from kids and visiting schools. Children from all over the world sent me wonderful drawings of Fletcher. I decided it was time for Fletcher to tell his own stories and star in his own series. But writing is mysterious. I never knew that a friendly flea named Jasper would join Fletcher. As I began these books, Jasper just started popping up and chatting. Now, Gwen, Jill, Fletcher, Mordicai, and I have a new friend. He's rather tiny, but he's a lot of fun, and I'm looking forward to more mysteries with Fletcher and Jasper and their humans, Gwen and Jill.
From AudioFile:
The mystery-solving duo of Fletcher the basset hound and Jasper the flea are back in business and once again come to the aid of their human friends, Jill and Gwen. In this installment of Levy's First Chapter Books, a school-wide literary event culminates in a celebratory reading of Gwen's story but only after the sleuths have averted calamity. William Dufris and Christine Marshall are distinctive storytellers. With childlike enthusiasm they embrace the improbabilities of aliens, sneezes, and a principal high atop the school. They provide distinct voices for each character, including the get-her-tongue-around-her-braces voice of Gwen and the goofy voice of Jasper.
