Several of the books have been made into television programs, and one of these, Nate the Great Goes Undercover , won the Los Angeles International Children's Film Festival Award. The New York Public Library named Nate the Great Saves the King of Sweden as one of its "100 Titles for Reading and Sharing". Begun in 1972, the series has over 20 titles. Nate is a detective, a child version of Sherlock Holmes. With his dog, Sludge, Nate solves crime. The 1978 book Nate the Great and the Lost List features a character named Rosamond. Rosamond has long black hair and a short black dress, white mary jane shoes, four black cats of different sizes, and is frequently described as "strange." In particular, the text of Nate the Great introduces Rosamond: "Rosamond did not look hungry or sleepy. She looked like she always looks. Strange." The 2002 book Nate the Great, San Francisco Detective establishes that Nate the Great and Olivia Sharp are cousins. Olivia Sharp is the title character in the Olivia Sharp: Agent for Secrets series of books, by Marjorie Sharmat, Mitchell Sharmat, and Denise Brunkus.
