     Brandon Andrews is having nightmares. Okay, perhaps it would be more accurate to say that Brandon Andrews is having a nightmare, over and over and over again. A chance encounter in a grocery store with a crotchety old man has been taking over Brandon’s nighttime musings. In this dream, the man from the grocery store consistently morphs into Mr. Omni, a man whom Brandon sees as a nemesis from his past.   …more…

Now here is a book that I would truly recommend to my 12 year old nephew – and then enjoy talking to him about it after he read it. It reminds me of the Encyclopedia Brown stories that I used to read as a preteen – but with a gospel emphasis. I also have to say, that when I was done with this book – I was recommitted to having family home evening, family prayer, and daily scripture study. The author just makes these activities seem like so much fun! It is my goal to be a parent like the parents of the Andrews family. They just seem to be so cool!   …more…

Let me begin with what usually ends a review — I loved this book! It was a pure delight to read.

The Book of Mormon Sleuth is the story of young Brandon Andrews, a typical, mischievous Mormon youth, a budding soccer star. The Andrews household is considerable — Mom and Dad, six children, and Granny, all living under one roof, and constantly getting in each others’ way.

One day Dad announces that the family will be spending their summer vacation months with Aunt Ella, a kindly relative who lives in Iowa on a dairy farm. This isn’t exactly how the children had planned to spend their summer, and they all wished that Mom and Dad had made other plans. This wouldn’t be their first visit to the dairy farm, and two of the children have big plans for the summer.  …more…
