Nate the Great and the Snowy Trail

This commission is something strange. At first, this commission is from Rosamond, and the import of it is to find the birthday present for Nate the Great. The people who receive a present searches for it? As a matter of fact, today is not his birthday. Rosamond is still something strange. The birthday present which Nate the Great discovered is also eccentric, and still strange.
But I like Rosamond! She looks very cool and mysterious in appearance, but she is a playful girl in fact!

A garbage can of Oliver's house is tipped over every night, so Oliver asked Nate the Great to find out who messes up the garbage can. Nate the Great identify the culprit as a skunk once. The skunk certainly picks over the garbage at night, but it doesn't peck through the garbage can of Oliver's house.
They are back where they started with the case. So, I thought. But it was wrong. Conversely, Nate the Great became certain who is the culprit. The culprit is really shocking for me! I felt strongly the excellence of Nate the Great!

Nate the Great and the MISSING KEY

A little superior detective, Nate the Great has secretly given his heart to Annie. Annie had a trouble. She can't find a key of her house. Today, she will have her dog, Fang's birthday party at her house, so if she can't find the key, she can't have a party. The culprit is Rosamond. Rosamond hid the key in somewhere. The hint of somewhere is "A strange, round, big and safe place". Nate the Great searched high and low for Annie's key. This denouement is also unexpectedly! To put it briefly, "It's darkest beneath the lamp."
In this connection I may add that Rosamond who made the trouble is my favorite character! She is mysterious and strange, but she is also cute and beautiful. She is very charming for me. The series of Nate the Great has many nice characters, it is also attraction of this story, I think.

I like the series of Nate the Great, but this story, the Lost List is specially intersting. I really like this. This series is so fascinating because of unpredictability of the denouement, but this end of the incident is very surprising. I thought that the very important have no relation to the grocery list. I missed the important thing. I can't be the great detective like Nate the Great!
