About this title

About the Author:

Donald J. Sobol was the author of the highly acclaimed Encyclopedia Brown series and many other books. His awards include a special Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America for his contribution to mystery writing in the United States, and the Pacific Northwest Library Association Young Readers’ Choice Award for Encyclopedia Brown Keeps the Peace.

From School Library Journal:

Grade 3-7 Another welcome addition to the series of chapter-length mysteries starring ten-year-old detective Encyclo pedia Brown. The book's format is the same as the rest of the series: each chap ter is a complete case (there are ten here), solved by Encyclopedia Brown and left for readers to decipher. The solutions and reasoning used in each case are ex plained in the back of the book. These mini-mysteries are great because of the shortness of each case, and the solve-it- yourself format draws even reluctant readers to them. Gayle D. Celizic, Roosevelt School, Euclid, Ohio
