"The third volume of [the Oscar series] adventures uses the same story format. Oscarconfides his boredom to his e-mail companionin Australia. When she responds that he needs somthing exciting in his life, he suddenly hears suspicious noises in his house. Lisa responds via e-mail from Australia that it must be a thief, and that Oscar should investigate immediately! After 14 engaging movements and a uniquely Maute scenario involving the now infamous cat, Nero, the mystery is solved. Includes snippets of audience participation, special effects, body gestures, rhythmic speech and even a bit of singing. All three works [in the Oscar series] hold broad appeal for the intended young adult performers, but many young-at-heart consorts would find them useful."--Leslie Timmons, for AMERICAN RECORDER, September 2008
