The Sherlock Files #1 - The 100-Year Old Secret

Author: Tracy Barrett

Why Selected: First in a new series.

Literary Merit: Pretty good sleuth novel about descendants of Sherlock Holmes. Text to Text connection to Encyclopedia Brown, a character is named Leroy Brown. This is an easy read but not dumbed down easy.

Share: A nice transitional book for 2nd or 3rd graders. But only to suggest.

Appeal: Boys or Girls as main characters are a boy and a girl.

Awards: None
