A nice book of whodunnits (or rather who-should-be-convicteds) for kids in the tradition of Donald J. Sobol's Encyclopedia Brown. The cases themselves are a little drier (and sometimes more confusing) than the typical Encyclopedia Brown, but they require -- in similar fashion -- a good eye for detail.

A nice little book of brain teasers... Don't spoil the answers for yourself! It's much more fun if you figure out the answer yourself, or if you play a version of "20 questions" where a friend knows the solution and you have to figure it out.
