Book Scrounger's note: This is a guest review by Doug, a.k.a. Professor Puzzler:

The Eleventh Hour: A Curious Mystery is a clever mystery story about Horace the Elephant having a party -- only someone among them eats all the food. The question is, can you figure out who the culprit is? Not only do you have to pay attention to the rhyming storyline, but you also must watch for cleverly disguised and hidden visual clues within the beautiful drawings.

Even after you solve the mystery (or break open the seal in the back and read the solution), you'll still want to come back and read it again and again. The artwork is impressive, with many details to look out for.
