Donald J. Sobol was the author of the highly acclaimed Encyclopedia Brown series and many other books.

Gr 3-5-Leroy "Encyclopedia" Brown only needs to ask one question to solve a problem. His dad, who is chief of police, can always depend on him. The 10 crimes here range from bullies taking totem poles to safe cracking to kidnapping and more. Encyclopedia's solutions are listed in the back of the book. This newest addition to the lengthy series is a good choice for critical thinkers or for getting children to start problem-solving.-Marsha Whitney, South Meadow School, Peterboro, NH
