Product Description:
'Are you a gifted child looking for special opportunities?'
When this peculiar ad appears in the newspaper, dozens of children enroll to take a series of mysterious, mind-bending tests. (And you, dear reader, can test your wits right alongside them.) But in the end just four very special children will succeed. Their challenge: to go on a secret mission that only the most intelligent and resourceful children could complete. To accomplish it they will have to go undercover at the Learning Institute for the Very Enlightened, where the only rule is that there are no rules.
As our heroes face physical and mental trials beyond their wildest imaginations, they have no choice but to turn to each other for support. But with their newfound friendship at stake, will they be able to pass the most important test of all?
Welcome to the Mysterious Benedict Society.

Rating:  - Outstanding fiction for middle readers (and their parents)
What tremendous fun this is!I read the first 100 pages aloud to my mother after she had surgery.Then the book got so compelling and engaging that I had to race through silently and leave poor Mom to fend for herself.(I gave her a copy of her own for Mother's Day.)

Rating: - SO SO SO good!
My best friend recomended this book to me. It is a little slow at the beginning pretty good in the middle and COMPLETELY fantastic at the climax and end. I would definatly recomend it. My favorite character is Constance Contraire. Also the illustrations rock. I can't wait to read the next one!!!!!!
Rating: - Engaging Book for Grades 5 - 8

Rating: - Onto Book Number 2, The Family's Hooked!
I was pleasantly surprised by what this book has to offer!Wonderful characters and situations that have left me, my daughter of 6 and my son of 9 completely enthralled.You won't be disappointed, you will be on the edge of seat!
Rating: - Great Book for my 11 yr old
He read it in 4 days.I had a hard time getting him to put the book down.He enjoys reading but It's rare that he finds a book that engagedes his interest that much.As soon as he was finished he asked if he could have the next book in this series.
