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 am reading this book and it is so good! I highly recommend it!
Well, once upon a time my best friend was trying to get me to read this book. I didn't at first because we aren't really into the same genres of things but, eventually she got me to read it. After I read it, I had to go up and thank her for getting me into these books. They are awesome. I could not put it down for more than like 5 minutes! I loved the characters and the conflict in the story. It was really, really good, I am definitely not lying one bit. It made you wonder what was going to happen next. My teacher even came up to me and said that it must be a really good book because she could see by my facial expressions just how into it I was! I will surprise you and make you laugh. I highly recommend it to any age just as long as they can read around a 5th grade level. Even if they/you can't, have someone read it to you! THAT'S how good it is!!! :D
A wonderful book about very mysterious children. The author has done a great job. The characters are all very unique and I love this book!

The Mysterious Benedict Society is formed by three young tweenagers, a 3 year old, a happy old man with narcolepsy (Mr. Benedict) , and two young adults. They save the world from being brain-sweeped by Mr. Benedict's evil twin. It doesn't sound to exciting, but it is. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's long but so exciting! There is no way you can finish the book and say "I hated it!" I recommend it to everyone!
This is a great series! I am not done with the 3rd book yet but I recommend it. It takes a while to get started so don't quit until your done with the first book. You should read this series for sure!!!!!!!!
