Average Rating: 
Rating: - Fun Book
This is one of the better children's books my kids have read. Just right for my 7-year old who likes to read, but needs something great to get all the way through a book without being prodded. Very fun.
Rating: - Encyclopedia is the Greatest!
I absolutely loved the Encyclopedia Brown Series growing up. I read and reread them so much people called me Encyclopedia Jones. Actually, I did get pretty good at helping people find things. Too bad I didn't charge 25 cents!
This book, like all of Donald J. Sobol's Encyclopedia Brown books, makes you think, and pay attention, but each case is lots of fun. Leroy Brown, son of the chief of police, is the only boy detective in Idaville. He is so good at solving problems, locating missing items, ... Read More
Rating: - Can U Solve This Case?!?!
Leroy's back! Ten all new cases! He still solves them for his dad(chief of police)and has his own detective agency. This is good for kids my age since it really gets your brain thinking. This is the second book in the series and it's just like the first one except there's different cases.
I liked this and recommend this for anyone who:
1.likes Mysteries or
2.is ten years old
If you read this book then you will like it too!

Rating: - Mysteries and Puzzles
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 second in ... Read More
