Encyclopedia Brown is still a good choice

My 9 and 11 year old grandsons enjoy Encyclopedia Brown books. The books are fun to read, but they also make them think about different situations. And I like that it's a series of books, making shopping easier for me. I remember buying Encyclopedia Brown books for my son over 20 years ago! Some books (like these) never go out of style.

Wonderful story for reluctant readers

My son loved these stories when he was young, I bought this book so that I could introduce Encyclopedia Brown to my 8 year old grandson, with the hope that he'll enjoy the story as much as his Dad did.

Only a couple of errors in the ebook.

Overall a great representation of the paperback...only a couple of errors in the ebook:

1. A page from a chapter in the middle of the book appears at the beginning of the book as well as its intended location.
2. Two words in "The Case of the Happy Nephew" are missing the last letter of the word.
3. There is no chapter marking for the solutions. You have to page over to them after the last chapter.

You Too Can Be Encyclopedia Brown

In Encyclopedia Brown, Boy Detective, Encyclopedia Brown is an 11 year old boy who knows a lot more than I do, and we are the same age. He lives in a normal sized city called Idaville. His dad is the chief of police department in Idaville. Encyclopedia likes to help his dad with his cases. The town thinks his dad is the best policeman when actually it is the work of his son. My favorite quote from Encyclopedia Brown Boy Detective is, ¿He was like a complete library walking around in sneakers.¿ I like this quote because it describes Encyclopedia Brown so well. It makes me think that he knows everything but he is just a boy in sneakers that could be playing football with me at recess. There are 10 cases in the book that Encyclopedia Brown solves. At the end of each case, it tells you to go to a certain page in the back of the book to see how Encyclopedia solved the case. It is so cool to see how he thought through the events that happened and then decide how to solve the case. I have three favorite cases in this book. In the first one, The Case of the Civil War Sword, a boy named Peter Brown wants to trade a bike for a sword that might have been used in the Civil War. Encyclopedia Brown looked at the sword and says it might be worth twenty bikes if it was given to Stonewall Jackson. This case is hard because I have to find out things about the Civil War so I can see if it is really worth Peter¿s bike. In the second case, The Case of the Bank Robber, the problem is why they can¿t charge a robber for robbery because he only had a loaf of bread in his sack. A robber and a blind man beggar collided on the sidewalk after the bank had been robbed, then began to roll down the street after. I like this case because I did not think that all that the robber stole was a loaf of bread, so I got fooled. While I read this case, I thought that the blind man was not really blind. This case was hard because when the answer key told me the answer, I didn¿t think that it was even possible. I like Encyclopedia Brown, Boy Detective because every case I read makes me want to solve the problem. I get to be Encyclopedia and solve the mystery myself. Like in the case of the Bank Robber, I have to find out how Encyclopedia Brown knows who did it. I recommend that you read this book because it is exciting. It never gets boring because each case is short and then it is on to a new case. Also, after I read this book, it encouraged me to read more Encyclopedia Brown books and there are lots of them to choose from.
