These are such a fun read. I hadn't read them since I was a kid, but read it while Madison had it checked out. Will definitely read another.

It really fun because you have to solve the case as your reading .If you can't get it,the answers are in the back.

I've read this book before; I'm not sure how many times. I hadn't planned on rereading it all now, but it was hard to stop.
I was surprised by how many times I remembered the critical clue before I reread it.

My kids really enjoyed me reading these to them. I love reading to my kids, and these books really got them into the story and figuring out the mystery.

Encyclopeida loves to help right wrongs. He helps adults as well as the neigborhood kids solve mysteries. These short cases are short enough to keep a second grader's interest, but include enough clues that children can process the information and find the bad guy just like Encyclopedia.

this is a very good book because it's interesting to me how this kid about 10 years old solves all these cases with the smallest mistakes. his dad is a policeman and the kid Leroy also called encyclopedia solves half of his cases. as i have been reading these books I've actually began to figure out some cases every once in a while.

This was one of the later mysteries where the series took a dark turn and Encyclopedia has to figure out who killed Sally Kimball's baby. [Spoiler alert: In a shocking twist at the end, it turns out that Sally had an abortion.]

I've not been much of a mystery fan as an adult, but I loved this series, and read the ones in our library several times.

A brilliant rolemodel as a child. I could only wish I knew that much, and it made me look for more knowledge!
