Summary: They will get your kids reading!
Comment: Encyclopedia Brown was one of my favorites when I was a boy. The mysteries are pretty challenging for an 11 year old but that just makes getting them correct all the sweeter. I gave my first Encyclopedia Brown book to my 11 year old a few weeks ago, hoping beyond hope that they hadn't lost their magic over the years. He devoured it! The stories are written in an easy to read style that makes the process fun. Each story also stands on its own, which makes the book easy to pick up and put down (and perfect for chewing up a daily bus ride). It is great stuff and if your kid likes it, there are tons books for him (or her) to read through.

Summary: Extremely Challenging Puzzles!
Comment: My Mom gave me Encyclopedia Brown as a reading assignment.
Leroy Brown lives in the town of Idaville. He helps his dad solve police mysteries. No one in Idaville ever gets away with a crime when Encyclopedia is around!
I admire how Leroy stands up to the bully, Bugs Meany.
I really enjoyed trying to solve the mysteries. I think Leroy (Encyclopedia) Brown is the smartest person in the state!
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys solving a challenge. I have read a few others in the series and enjoyed those as well.

Summary: Mysteries and Puzzles
Comment: Encyclopedia Brown is a 5th grade boy who solves puzzles, crimes and mysteries as easily and as unconsciously as breathing.
Each book is a series of short mysteries (5-10 pages each) ending with a question - usually "how did Encyclopedia know that X was responsible for the crime". The answer to each mystery is at the back of the book. Solving the mystery takes no special knowledge, but it does require paying attention to detail. Don't turn to the answer too fast.
This book is the first in the series, but the books do not have to be read in order. I loved the Encyclopedia Brown books when I was growing up. I am reading them again before I give them to my nephew who I hope will enjoy them as I did.
Adults who like this series may also enjoy the Lateral Thinking Puzzles books.
