Olivia Sharp, cousin to super sleuth Nate the Great, is a detective too! Rather than solve mysteries like Nate, Olivia helps friends with their problems by detecting what's wrong beneath the surface. You'll be won over by Olivia's spunk, eccentricities, and can-do spirit.

Olivia Sharp is one smart agent for secrets--which means she knows how to read between the lines. Olivia's best friend, Taffy Plimpton, has a problem. Taffy wants to join a secret club, but its members won't let her in. Why not? It's a secret that Olivia is determined to find out!
Born in Portland, Maine, in 1928, Marjorie Weinman Sharmat dreamed of becoming a writer. Little did she know that she would be the author of more than 130 books for children of all ages, which have been translated into 17 languages. Another of her childhood dreams, that of becoming a detective, has also been realized in her most popular Nate the Great series, begun in 1972. Many of Sharmat's books have been Literary Guild selections and chosen as Books of the Year by the Library of Congress. Several have been made into films for television, including Nate the Great Goes Undercover, winner of the Los Angeles International Children's Film Festival Award. Nate the Great Saves the King of Sweden has been named one of the New York Public Library's 100 Titles for Reading and Sharing. View titles by Marjorie Weinman Sharmat
Mitchell Sharmat, a graduate of Harvard University, has written numerous picture books, easy readers, and novels.
