Patrick Picklebottom Everyday Mysteries: Book One: The Case of the Brazilian Vase

DESCRIPTION

Patrick Picklebottom is out in the neighborhood and on the case - can YOU help him solve 10 different mysteries?

Patrick Picklebottom has a knack for critical thinking. So it's not too surprising that he and his best friend, Claire, keep coming across everyday mysteries. In school, at the local ice cream shop, during a history fair - even in his own house - Patrick constantly comes across new cases to crack. 

Can you help him solve these confounding mysteries:

  • The Case of the Brazilian Artifact 
  • The Case of the Stolen Bicycle
  • The Great Mountain Rescue Mystery
  • The Puzzle Behind the New Employee 
  • The Baking Contest Caper 
  • The Mystery of the History Fair 
  • The Case of the Broken Trophy 
  • The Mystery of the Missing Donut
  • Who Shattered the Window?
  • The Case of the Acorn and the Oak 

Join Patrick and his friends in 10 short stories where YOU help solve the mysteries. Can you figure out the solutions based on the clues provided? Think carefully before checking the answers in the back!

In the great tradition of the classic 
Encyclopedia Brown books by Donald J. Sobol, The Patrick Picklebottom Everyday Mysteries takes the beloved picture book character into a completely new direction with an interactive book for early readers.

Ideal for kids 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11, and grades 3-5

It's so fun getting to read these Encyclopedia Brown-style mysteries featuring one my son's most favorite book characters! I'm currently reading them to my 4-year old son. The book does contain a few typos which might catch some spelling/grammar/punctuation sticklers, full disclosure; but over all, the stories are fun, contain those trademark Patrick Picklebottom-style illustrations (mad props as always to Gary Wilkinson) and have brought us back into Patrick's world of adventures for sure.

The stories are quick and super simple, but the kids like the quick read alouds as I read while they have breakfast and they can guess what happens while they eat. Goes really quick and keeps everyone’s attention.
