This latest batch of cases finds "America's crime-buster in sneakers" Encyclopedia Brown and pal Sally Kimball protecting the kids of Idaville from longtime foes Bugs Meany and Wilford Wiggins, as well as other would-be criminals. The brief, entertaining mysteries include a few not-so-obvious clues, but readers will enjoy guessing before reading the solutions. Pencil drawings illustrate the text.
