Download The Case of the Case of Mistaken Identity: Brixton Brothers, Book 1 Audiobook

" clever, funny, and exciting, this is a perfect parody/tribute to old school detective stories. it would have won me over even without the awesome library shout outs. can't wait for sequels! "

" This book was ok. It had some humorous parts, especially if you are a teacher or librarian. "

" Great boy book, but I think girls would like the action, adventure as well. I know I want to be a secret agent librarian!!! Well, maybe not, but it could be fun to dream I could! "

" Hilarious send up of the Hardy Boys mysteries. This is my new go-to series for 3-4th grade boys looking for a mystery to satisfy those genre reports. "

" This is one of those books that the boys having a hard time finding something to read, will enjoy and ask for more. It is a mystery story full of humor and strange happenings. Steve, a 12 year-old, is a huge fan of the "Bailey Brothers Detective Handbook," and knows all its tips and tricks for real crime-solving. He ends up using those tips and tricks when he becomes involved in a real crime. I'm looking forward to the next book in this series. "

" Solid YA mystery. Not as funny as it perhaps thinks it is, but then again, I'm not 10 years old. Probably works better for the target audience than for adult YA lovers, which is not at all a bad thing. Still, fun and light. "

" A funny, exciting parody of the Hardy Boys. "

" The library is not always what you think it is...read this book to discover why! Really cute and funny book. My daughter Hannah highly recommends it! "

" I like this book because there were a lot of action parts where steve had to run away from people. "

" I listened to this book on tape and thoroughly enjoyed the adventures of the Brixton Brothers or should I say Brixton Brother? Barnett's humor drives the book, connecting with readers at a variety of ages. This is the first of the series, let's hope for many more! "

" Fun book. A witty, face-paced tweaking of the Hardy Boys-style boy mysteries. Can't wait for the second one! "

" Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of librarians ruling the world, but I just wasn't in the right frame of mind to love it. Maybe with the next one! "

" Very kitch-y. Great for boys whose Dads were Hardy Boys fans! "

" A good mystery with secret agent librarians that pokes fun at all the typical constructs of children's mysteries. Fans of the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew should see the humor though adults will definitely be giggling through most of this book. "

" I enjoyed this book. It is on the Young Hoosier nominee list for 2012-13 school year. I like to read them before the students so we can discuss them together. "

" Cute light hearted book with Steve (the detective) and lots of undercover librarians. Read by Arte Shaw who's voice just fits the story. "

" Really fun, and funny, and works very well as a sendup of/response to the Hardy Boys. "

" This was a good chapter book mystery with lots of references to (and jokes based on) classic Hardy Boys mysteries. "

" This was already on my Kindle when I got it so I gave it a shot. Clever and funny and safe for all ages. If I had kids this would be on their list for sure, as I loved Encyclopedia Brown, Danny Dunn, Rick Brant, etc., when I was young. "

" This book caught me. It was so good I never put it down! "

" I am currently reading The Case Of The Case Of Mistaken Identity. (Brixton Brothers #1) by Mac Barnett. "

" This book is about Steve who is trying to solve the case of mistaken identity. One thing that happens to him in the story is he gets captured by Mr. E's henchmen. Great book. "

" This is the funniest book I've read in a long time! I can't wait for the next one in the series to come out. "

" This book was okay--really wacky. Amy Commers did a really nice review of the title that gives a good feel for it. "

" A very funny read. The humor feels natural and unforced, just flowing from the author. A great book that any late elementary or middle school boy should find enjoyable. You might guess the ending of this funny mystery, but you'll never guess how it is solved. "

" This book was really good. "

" I actually really liked this one...good combination of humor and mystery. Plus they have secret government agents posing as librarians! I think the students are going to really enjoy it. After talking to this editor's rep at TLA, he says the second book in the series is even better. "

" Fun book. A witty, face-paced tweaking of the Hardy Boys-style boy mysteries. Can't wait for the second one! "

" Hilarious! Take off on the Hardy Boys with great illustrations to compliment the story.Librarian secret agents, absolutely! "

" The book was confusing. But I was addicted to it. It was a good mystery. My favorite part was when Steve announced that Mrs. Gilfeather was the criminal. "

" Not too impressed by this book, even by kids standards "

" What a great mystery for kids, boys especially. Hilarious, corny and I love it because of its portrayal of librarians.
No spoilers from me. "
