Twenty Great Puzzles and Mysteries for You to Solve

This book for middle grade readers features twenty stories by members of Mystery Writers of America. Each story provides the clues and puzzles you need to solve it along with the characters. In fact, the solutions are at the back of the book to give you time to figure out what is really going on before you see if you got it right. While a few authors feature series sleuths, most of the stories feature original characters.

And all of them are fun. Many are straight up mysteries, but some feature puzzles we can learn about and solve with the characters along the way. The stories average about 15 pages each, so they would work well for reading aloud and solving as a group. It might take a group to solve some of them. I figured a few out, but many left me stumped until I turned to the end. There isn’t a bad story in the bunch, and kids will certainly enjoy this collection as much as I did.

This was so good! This is one of those mysteries where there is a surprise around every corner and you really don't know what's going to happen next. Even after everything Agatha did, I still felt sorry for her and could understand where she was coming from. And I was surprised that Meg was so understanding because I don't know if I would have been in that same situation. It really kept me on my toes until the very end.
