Always a good time with these head scratcher mystery puzzles. Some fun puns to laugh about!

I used to read the Clue books when I was little, so I suggested to Reagan that we read one together for a sister book club. (She's not a big reader and I'm trying to encourage her to become one by finding things she's interested in reading about.) It was a cute little walk down memory lane to read it, and it was fun comparing notes with her after we tried to solve each "case." I hope she'll want to read another book with me soon.

Oh, wow - I had completely forgotten this series even existed! I happened to see this book in the library catalogue and it immediately brought back so many memories, so of course I had to check it out.

This was such a fun trip down memory lane, and I really enjoyed solving these mini mysteries. It reminded me a bit of Encyclopedia Brown, except here you could actually use logic and not have to know some obscure fact to figure out whodunnit.

Looks like my library has one more of these books, so of course I'll be getting that one, too. =)

I was hoping that reading and reading and reading the books in this little series would somehow improve my observant skills, and maybe eventually I would have been able to get every single one of the little mysteries solved and feel absolutely amazing.

But no.

I still have a ton of fun though, maybe my kids will get into this little series one day.

The characters are fun and entertaining throughout the book. There is tons of humor that kept me thoroughly entertained as a child. I love whodunit books and trying to figure out the various mysteries and this collection of tales certainly doesn’t disappoint.

I love these books. I find the repetitive nature of the characters hilarious. Although I've grown too old for these mysteries to be challenging, I continue to read these books over and over. :D

An amazing book filled with thrilling mysteries. What I always wonder though is : Why does Mr. Boddy always tell his guests about his priceless items?
