Encyclopedia Brown Boy Detective was one of the first books I actually owned as a child (I lived close to a library), actually getting it from my school's Reading is Fundamental Days. I must have read that book over and over again, always forcing myself to try and "forget" how the mystery was solved so I could reread them and try to pick up the "clues"
I always wondered why that boy behind Bugs Meanie had only a floating head with no body. But it's still way better than the red cover they have for it now.
The cover I had (which depicts the Civil War sword mystery) looked exactly like this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/0553...
