A long since out-of-print children's book series written by Eve Titus and illustrated by Paul Galdone about Basil of Baker Street, the [[Sherlock Holmes]] of the [[Mouse World]], and his personal biographer, Dr. David Q. Dawson. [[Adaptation Displacement|Not as well known as its]] [[Animated Adaptation]], ''[[The Great Mouse Detective (Disney)|The Great Mouse Detective]]''.

Line 13:
* [[Adaptation Displacement]]
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Basil is quite able to hold his own in a fight against multiple opponents.
* [[Barefoot Cartoon Animals]]: While mostly averted in ''[[The Great Mouse Detective (Disney)|The Great Mouse Detective]]'', Galdone's illustrations show a lack of shoes for any of the characters.
* [[Cats Are Mean]]: Throughout the series but averted in '''Basil and the Pygmy Cats''' {{spoiler|since, you know, the cats are the same size as the mice.}}
* [[Dreadful Musician]]: Sort of. While Basil can't play the violin like [[Sherlock Holmes|his mentor]] to save his life, he is quite good at playing the flute.
Line 24:
* [[Private Detective]]: Basil
* [[Sherlock Scan]]
* [[Shout -Out]]: Plenty of shoutouts throughout the series to Titus' other mouse-related series, Anatole and of course, to [[Sherlock Holmes|The Canon]] itself.
* [[Sidekick]]: Dawson
* [[The Watson]]: Dawson
