Miss Kristin's Picks - The Mysterious Benedict Society

The Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart follows four children, Reynie, Constance, Kate, and Sticky through mysterious adventures involving puzzles, tests, and challenges. Each of the children have special talents and unique problem solving skills. Although they are very different from each other, the children learn to work together as the Mysterious Benedict Society.
This is a great book for boys and girls ages 7-10.
You can find this book and the sequel The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey at the library in the Juvenile section under J FIC STE.
