Anyone remember Encyclopedia Brown?

I loved that series.
Does anyone remember the Alvin Fernald books?
Yes! I liked those books, but didn’t read a lot of them and don’t remember them well.
What I do remember is reading a lot of James Bond books when I was in 5th & 6th grade. Even at the time I realized they were age inappropriate for me! But I did enjoy them and I was a big reader so I just dealt with the adult stuff.
Always figured someone had donated a bunch of paperbacks to the school and they just threw them into the classroom with no vetting.
This was a NYC public school in the late 60s.
yep, but the only short story I remember was the one where he proved that some kid was not a thief cause he was left handed and the stolen stuff was found in the right pocket of his pants inside of a gym locker.
he argued that if that kid had stolen the stuff it would have been in the left pocket cause that would be where he would naturally have put it, and thief did not realize that
HAH! Sure do!
Vaguely.
