The Mysterious Benedict Society

The Mysterious Benedict Society written by Trenton Lee Stewart is about four children (George "Sticky" Washington, Kate Wetherall, Reynie Muldoon, and Constance Contraire) who become members of and elite group that they name The Mysterious Benedict Society. In order to become part of this group, the children must take a very challenging test. Along with that, they were told to follow very specific instructions such as bringing only one pencil. They also had to arrive precisely on time and if they are late, they would not be able to take the test. The children are sent on a mission to defeat the evil Mr. Curtain and save others from his invention called the Whisperer.

I think that this book is excellent and very suspenseful. Stewart makes this book so irresistible to put down that I could read this in one sitting. With it's thrilling appeal and suspenseful chapters, this book is certainly one of the best books I have ever read. If you are fans of Roald Dahl, you will surely love this book. I give this book 4 out of 4 stars. Be sure to look for the sequel The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey and the prequel The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Prisoner's Dilemma.
