Ah! There it is! Thanks for jarring my memory-- I was trying to
think of a good book to re-read before I die tomorrow. (Oh, sorry,
did I say "die"? I meant to say, "go back to school". Meh, same
thing.)
I loved reading the Lewis Barnavelt books in elementary school-- they
were well-written and fabulously witty. I second the thought that
this should be a must-read for anyone craving more magic and mystery
post-HP4!

return to the Hallowed Halls of High School Hypocrisy, but happy that
she finished her terribly dreary summer reading assignment 2 weeks
ago)
