Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The challenge is on for young amateur sleuths: how do their skills stack up against a brainy pre-teen who helps his detective mom figure out “whodunit?” Ever since Jonah Bixby’s father—also a detective—died in the line of duty, Jonah would come down to the station house after school to wait for his mother to get off work. All the cops took him under their wing, tutoring Jonah and turning him into their unofficial mascot. In the process, Jonah became a crack crime solver, and these 20 cases, from “After School Homicide” to “Vampire on the Balcony,” are among his most fun and intriguing. They include missing objects, jewel thefts and art heists, murders, accidents, and even some pranks.

I bought this book for my 11 year old daughter after finishing the Encyclopedia Brown series. Where Encyclopedia Brown was somewhat dated, this is right on for today's kids. She loved Jonah, the main character, and could identify with him. The mysteries are good and interesting, and the short format makes it great to read a couple of mysteries before bed. I HIGHLY recommend this book and am ready to pre-order the subsequent one.My daughter can't wait and asks weekly when the new one will be out.
