Dozens of children respond to this peculiar ad in the newspaper and are then put through a series of mind-bending tests, which readers take along with them. Only four children-two boys and two girls-succeed. Their challenge: to go on a secret mission that only the most intelligent and inventive children could complete. To accomplish it they will have to go undercover at the Learning Institute for the Very Enlightened, where the only rule is that there are no rules. But what they'll find in the hidden underground tunnels of the school is more than your average school supplies. So, if you're gifted, creative, or happen to know Morse Code, they could probably use your help.

I think this is just about one of the best (if not the best) books I have EVER read. You will get sucked into it, and finish it in no time - even though it is a very long book. But don't worry, because there are I think about five books in the series! These are just INCREDIBLE books, and I think Trento Lee Stuart did an AMAZING job! This book is a MUST READ!!
I read about half of the book when I was younger and I thought it was a very good book.I really want to finish it.
This interesting book was read to us in class this year. I really liked the bravery of some of the characters.
This book is awesome! I personally think that everyone should read this book, and it is okay if you don't agree with me. All I've read from these series is this book so far, but still! Ah. Hmm........ what else to say? AH! This book is brimming with mystery, so all mystery book lovers HAVE to read this.
Reynie, Kate, Constance and are really different. I repeat, REALLY different. Two of the few things they have in common are that they are very gifted, and they are "alone" (you will understand that if you read this). Anyway, these four kids find an ad in the newspaper that tells them about a test to find "special opportunities". When they pass, they meet Mr. Benedict, who asks them if they would go undercover at the Learning Institute for the Very Enlightened, where they find many mysteries, problems, and on top of all that, no one can discover what they are actually doing. THis is one of the best books on this planet. It might be boring for the first couple of pages, but it is AWESOME, trust me. If you like slightly funny, mysterious, adventure books, you MUST read this.
I love these series! I only read two of these series, but I certainly want to buy this book!
This series is one of the most best series I have ever read, and trust me, I've read a lot. T.L.S is just wonderfully sublime and I was terribly unhappy when the books finished!
On the first book, I was so surprised to find out that Constance was a toddler! It's a terrific book, and I highly recommend it to eveyone about Grade 4~Grade 9.
The Mysterious Benedict Society is a suspenseful adventure book about four extraordinary kids sent on a mission to stop a devilish scheme involving a mass brainwashing. Fans of the Harry Potter or Percy Jackson series will notice the similar theme that The Mysterious Benedict Society presents.
