IF YOU LIKE MYSTERIES, GET THIS BOOK!

I like mysteries,and I couldn't find any. I tried this book and it is great! I think it was just the right book for me. It is very funny, and I think you will enjoy it.

A Very Good Book

Love the book. It was all about cases that Encyclopedia Brown was trying to solve. There were always bad and mean people in each case.

A very good book that builds brains

I liked this book because it made me a lot smarter, and sometimes it made me laugh, too. I would recommend it to anyone who loves mysterious stories and solving puzzles.

If you like Encyclopedia Brown, this book won't let you down

Very enjoyable reading. The clues are never too easy or too hard. The only problem is the case of the missing tennis balls. It seems EB may have gone out on a limb in quckly passing judgement based solely on the suspect knowing that tennis balls come three to a pack after claiming earlier that he knew nothing of tennis. Is it not possible that the suspect noticed this while in the tennis pro shop?
