Encyclopedia Brown mysteries

I loved these mysteries as a kid - boy detective going up against snarly Bugs Meany, the town bully.

I loved finding out the solution and going back and looking at the clues!

I loved Sally beating up on the bullies! Plus sometimes Sally solves the mystery.

I was thinking back to when I first read a book about Encyclopedia Brown, but then I realized I was thinking of Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators.

Encylcopedia Brown had a sad ending.

IDAVILLE, FL—Police are currently investigating the death of police detective Leroy "Encyclopedia" Brown, 49, whose body was discovered in a Dumpster behind the Idaville Public Library Monday.

The trash bin inside of which police found the mangled body of Detective Brown (inset).

"Detective Brown's death is a great loss," said Idaville Police Commissioner Rupert "Bugs" Meany, a longtime critic of Brown's unorthodox investigative technique who nevertheless appeared to be shaken by the murder. "Thanks to him, Idaville has the highest arrest-to-conviction-due-to-obscure-trivia rate in the nation. I believe I speak for everyone in Idaville when I say that Encyclopedia Brown was truly the greatest sleuth in sneakers."
