Ten More Cases with the World’s Smartest Ten-Year-Old
This book features ten more chances to match wits with Encyclopedia Brown. Up first, he’s trying to figure out how to move a giant mousetrap that a would be criminal left outside town hall when no one would buy it from him. The rest of the stories find Encyclopedia and his partner Sally helping his friends and neighbors. They encounter Bugs Meany a few times when Bugs tries to rig a drawing and again when he tries to set Sally and Encyclopedia up with the police. They also help a friend keep his business giving for golf balls to himself and save the Left-Handers Club from sabotage.

These stories really are short, averaging about five pages each, with the piece of information that Encyclopedia used to stop the crime from taking place on another page at the end. I never could solve these as a kid, but I managed to do pretty well as an adult rereading this book. And no, it’s not because I remembered what had happened. The stories are a bit dated but that shouldn’t be too big an issue for today’s kids. The characters are also thin because there really isn’t time for character development, but again, kids won’t care. I certainly didn’t as a kid.

New app so there are a lot of bugs (0 more)
Well, Disney+ is finally here. The app is sufficient for now. I didn't expect it to be perfect, new apps never are. My main issue is that nothing is consistent between different devices. Like, the profile pictures and whatnot. The app also crashes, which is kind of annoying, but expected.
Now, the content. Yes, it boasts new, exclusive shows, and Endgame. The National Geographic selection isn't great. Also, for me, the jury is still out on The Mandalorian. It's hard to judge if a show is good or not based upon two 30-ish minute eps.

I've been thinking of subscribing to this but the overall reviews look poor

@Amy Wolfs I would wait until they get the kinks worked out. Hopefully it's sooner rather than later.
