This review is from: Encyclopedia Brown and the Case of the Exploding Plumbing and Other Mysteries (Hardcover)

ISBN 0590405314 - THIS Leroy Brown is the "baddest" detective in the whole darn town. Idaville is the only crime-free city in the country, and Encyclopedia is the reason. Always a big fan of mysteries and detectives for any age, I have to rank Encyclopedia among my favorites. As a kid, I felt challenged to be more observant after Encyclopedia beat me to the answer over and over. I find not much has changed as an adult, and I love it! With several short cases in the book, younger readers will find it easy to keep up - none of that putting the book down and coming back to it a little lost about where you were in the story. Older readers will only find themselves disappointed that the book came to an end! That, and they were outsmarted by a kid.
