Fatal Fixer-upper is the first in a new "cozy" mystery series by Jennie Bentley. Well-plotted. Good characterization. I'm looking forward to the next installment (due Aug 2009).

The Mysterious Benedict Society

The only real difference between excellent "children's" fiction and excellent "adult" fiction is the age of the protagonist. I suppose that makes The Mysterious Benedict Society, by Trention Lee Stewart, a "children's book".

Read it for yourself, then share with a kid. It's a wonderful adventure.
