Praise for To Catch a Thief

Winner of the Sid Fleischman Award for Humor

"To Catch a Thief is a page-turner of a mystery with a great big heart, and Amelia MacGuffin is the smart, funny kid sleuth we've all been waiting for. Readers will laugh and fall in love with the MacGuffin family as they follow the clues to crack this absolutely delightful case." -- Kate Messner, New York Times bestselling author of Blackout

"Get ready to have your heart stolen. With its wit and warmth, this treasure of a book deserves to be on every bookshelf next to the Penderwicks and Because of Winn-Dixie." -- Justina Chen, author of Lovely, Dark, and Deep

"To Catch a Thief isn't just a fascinating and ever-deepening mystery. It's also a testament to the power of telling the right story the right way, and the transformative love of an absurdly charming dog." -- Eliot Schrefer, New York Times bestselling author of the Lost Rainforest series

"This is the kind book I loved as a kid -- and still love now.
