helena Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I picked up this book at the library book store You Be The Jury by Marvin Miller and the kids are loving it. I found another in the series at the library and put it on hold, but when I look on Amazon for similar books, I'm not having much luck. Can anyone suggest similar titles? It's courtroom trials and the reader is the jury.... :bigear: This would be for an 11 and 14 yo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewe Mama Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I can't help, but thanks for sharing the book info. They sound very interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori D. Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Looks like Amazon used has the whole series of You Be the Jury by Miller; most look to be $.01 + shipping for the paperbacks! Courtroom II (You Be the Jury) You Be the Jury: Courtroom III You Be the Jury: Courtroom IV You Be the Jury: Courtroom V One of my DSs really enjoys all of these "minute mystery" collections. Not courtroom based, but all short "whodunits" that he thought were worthwhile: - Solve-A-Crime (Dover Game and Puzzle Activity Books) -- closest to the You Be the Jury series - Crime and Puzzlement (series) (Treat) -- also closer to the You Be the Jury series - Two Minute Mysteries (Sobol) - More Two Minute Mysteries (Sobol) - Still More Two Minute Mysteries (Sobol) - Whodunnit: You Decide! (Conrad) - Almost Perfect Crimes: Mini Mysteries for You to Solve (Conrad) - Historical Whodunnits (Conrad) - The Little Giant Book of Whodunnits (Conrad) - Quicksolve (series) (Sukach) And if you want kids as the protagonist/detective in mini-mysteries: - Encyclopedia Brown series (Sobol) - Kids Whodunnit series (Conrad) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just might buy those books off Amazon today. I'm going to check the library for the second list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
