I couldn't be happier about the effect this series has had on my daughter. She is so excited about reading each new one that arrives in the mail. This increased interest in reading has now spilled over to lots of of books.

After I told my 9 year old son I would buy this for him, he wasn't interested. But once it arrived and I read the first story with him, he was hooked.

The Encyclopedia Brown series is an excellent way to encourage youngsters to read critically, think, and have fun doing it. In this example, as in others, Leroy (Encyclopedia) Brown and his friend Sally run a youthful detective agency in Idaville, matching withs with Bugs Meany, the Lions, and other juvenile wrong-doers. The cases involve theft of fruit wagons, and other minor (and sometimes un-minor) crimes. Each mystery is concise and easiy read, but some are easier than others to solve. I read this book as a kid and often failed to find the answers; as an adult most are solveable, but once or twice I had to peak at the solutions in the back pages. This is excellent reading for youngsters and young mystery fans.

I loved 2 Minute Mysteries when I was a child and now my daughter loves the same type of mysteries in Encyclopedia Brown and the 5 Minute Mysteries. They are fun in the car.
