Overview
The Kitty Series Books 7-12 Collection Set gathers six action-packed adventures starring Kitty, a young superhero-in-training with feline powers, written by former teacher Paula Harrison. Set in vividly imagined Hallam City, each story follows Kitty and her loyal cat crew—including devoted sidekick Pumpkin—as they solve mysteries, chase runaway trains, and rescue missing pets. Perfectly pitched for confident early readers moving into chapter books, this paperback set blends light suspense, gentle humor, and warm messages about courage, friendship, and teamwork. It's an ideal gift for young cat lovers and budding detectives who love a fast-paced story with a happy ending.

About the Books
Across these six stories, Paula Harrison continues the beloved Kitty series with fast, satisfying mysteries set in cozy Hallam City. Kitty is a superhero-in-training with cat-like abilities—speed, balance, and sharp senses—who dreams of living up to her superhero mum, but learns in every book that real bravery comes from kindness, patience, and teamwork rather than powers alone. Her feline crew of friends, including loyal cat Pumpkin, join her on rooftop patrols and night-time investigations, whether that means calming a runaway steam train, uncovering a stage magician's real disappearing act, chasing down a museum break-in, tracking a lost wildcat and her kittens, rescuing a kidnapped pet hamster, or solving the mystery behind a haunting midnight melody. Each adventure opens with an everyday problem that escalates just enough to keep pages turning, then resolves with a clever, age-appropriate twist that rewards readers who pick up on clues along the way. Paula Harrison's writing keeps sentences short and scenes lively, making these stories ideal read-alouds for parents and confident solo reads for children stepping up from picture books into first chapter books. Themes of loyalty, courage, honesty, and looking out for friends and animals run through every title. Illustrated throughout, the books balance genuine tension with reassuring, upbeat endings, so young readers feel the thrill of a mystery without ever feeling truly scared. Collected here as Books 7 through 12, this set is a natural next step for children who have already met Kitty.
