The Fourth Bear

The Fourth Bear is by Jasper Fforde. The second book in the Nursery Crimes series. Jack Spratt and Mary Mary are after the Gingerbread Man who has escaped from the mental institution and is on another killing spree. Then there are mysterious explosions being investigated by Goldilocks, who then winds up murdered. A wondrous mystery filled with dry British wit and loads of nursery characters. A must read series for mystery fans who enjoy totally off beat humor.

Ratings: 9th grade - 10 out of 10 - P (profanity) - AC (mature thematic content) - V (violence).
