The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey

(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Diana Sudyka. When Mr. Benedict is kidnapped, the four gifted members of the Mysterious Benedict Society must solve a puzzle-quest to rescue him, their footsteps dogged by creepy henchmen. Stewart keeps interest high with first-rate brainteasers, physical danger, and the children's own complex dynamics. Readers charmed by the first book's plot twists and quirky details will find this a worthy successor.
