Summary
"Leroy Brown, aka Encyclopedia Brown, is Idaville's ten-year-old star detective. With an uncanny knack for trivia, he solves mysteries for the neighborhood kids through his own detective agency. But his dad also happens to be the chief of police, and every night around the dinner table, Encyclopedia helps him solve his most baffling crimes. Join Encyclopedia Brown as he solves ten of his most confounding mysteries, including a case of a runaway elephant, a mysterious exploding toilet, a frightened witness, and more. With the clues given in each case, readers will have a chance to solve the mystery themselves!"--From publisher description
