Dotty and the Chimney Thief by Emma Warner-Reed

All is not well in the world of The Calendar House. There's a rogue sweep on the loose, and they're not just stealing trinkets from the houses they enter, they're stealing the chimneys, too To add insult to injury, little Joe Raman from the corner shop on Dotty's beloved Wyvern Road has gone missing and nobody knows why.

It appears Dotty has a lot to contend with. The Council of Sweeps are looking for answers but it seems there aren't any to be found. Has Joe been abducted by thieves, or is there another reason for his disappearance? And can the Chimney Thief be stopped, before all the portals into the world of the ordinary folk have been sealed - forever.​

What readers have to say about DOTY and the Chimney Thief:

I read the first chapter] to the children tonight and they were instantly back to being as gripped as they were by the first book. They both laughed out loud at the wonderful descriptions of Gobby in the kitchen covered in flour (again) and the way she asked Kenny to remove Geoff They cannot wait to find out what happens next.

S. Johnson, Stallingborough

What a thoroughly enjoyable read this series is turning out to be. The Calendar House world is definitely a place worth visiting and revisiting. Dotty the perfect protagonist with more than two dimensions to her character is sassy, brave and very curious. Just the sort of traits the best of adventurers require to step out into the unknown. There are a lot of children's books out there but very few can entertain all ages. Parents reading just one more chapter to their sleepy children will particularly enjoy reciting this as a bedtime story. As for their children. They will wallow in the luxurious imagery created by Emma Warner-Reed. 5 stars.
