The Brixton Brothers #4: Danger Goes Berserk
With illustrations by Matthew Myers
A stolen surfboard, vanishing cargo ships, missing gym shorts: Steve Brixton is drowning in mysteries.
A Junior Library Guild Selection
"Like the three earlier volumes of the Brixton Brothers series, this chapter book takes the adventure and plotting of an old-school (think Hardy Boys) series mystery and overlays it with deadpan, offbeat humor… . Wildly improbable and reliably entertaining.”
—Booklist
"Barnett has written a fun, adventure-filled book. This is a great choice for slow or reluctant readers."
—School Library Journal
"I’ll read the Brixton Brothers books even when my kids aren’t around, but they get a kick out of them, too. Barnett once again pulls off the balancing act between the absurdity of a kid who can solve crimes that adults can’t figure out and the reality that Steve’s a dorky kid who got all his sleuthing tips from a series of boy-detective novels.”
