Description

In this slapstick, illustrated crime adventure, the honest Theo Pincher, who doesn't fit in to his family of criminals, finds himself suddenly on the other side of the law because of an ancient curse.

Theo and Ellen accidentally break an ancient cat statue in the antique store. When they tell their mother, Nic, she turns pale. It must have been the statue that ruined the life of their ancestor Nab Pincher!

The curse of the Egyptian cat turns thieves into honest people and honest people into thieves. Nab met a terrible fate for a Pincher--he became a police officer. Now suddenly Ellen can't lie and Theo is becoming a criminal.

"Young readers will enjoy the playful plot of this pleasant read. Sparring weaves bits of comedy within the dialogue. Teachers and librarians would be wise to include this title in their collections, especially those with readers who love a good problem-solving mystery. The text is accompanied by abundant, charming artwork that captures the silliness and action."--School Library Journal
