I was wondering if anyone has read this book. The author graduated from my school, Hendrix College, and he gave a talk last semester. That's what got me interested in the first place. There are two books so far, and they are great children books, especially for bright children. The stories encourage learning and problem solving, and are interesting at the same time. They also deal with topics like disstortion of reality by authority figures, and the typical struggle between good and evil.

Just finished it this past week and loved it. Reviewed it on my book review blog and am looking to get the next book as soon as I can. Engaging story, clever puzzles, great characters. Granted, some of it bordered on fantastical, but with kids books, that's usually what makes it so fun.

Have you been to the website? The Curiosity Chronicle. Has puzzles and a bunch of other fun stuff on there. The second book in the series is on my list for my next trip to the library.
