October 12, 2009: I read these books as a child and cut my trivia-loving teeth on Leroy "Encyclopedia" Brown.
Recently, my third-grade daughter and I were discussing the use of logic to solve problems. The talk reminded me of these books, so I picked up the box set with the first few books in it. I wasn't sure how she would feel about them as they have been around since the 1960's, and I think every parent has had an experience with something that they enjoyed as a kid that, when revisited, should have been left to memory.Not so with these books. My daughter loves them, and enjoys the combination of reading on her own while also trying to figure out the clues that will solve the case.The payoff? She had the highest reading comprehension scores in her class this testing cycle.
