Small Question

[mabfan]

While I'm in the midst of doing stuff other than blogging...

I seem to recall a series of books from childhood with a character who solved mysteries. He (or she) used the slogan "No question too small." I've run a Google search on that phrase, but a lot of other places seem to use it as well. Does anyone out there have an inkling of what book or books I might be remembering?

(Edited To Add: It's from Encyclopedia Brown. Thanks to all!)

Encyclopedia Brown's sign reads:

BROWN DETECTIVE AGENCY
13 ROVER AVENUE
LEROY BROWN, PRESIDENT
No Case Too Small
25 cents Per Day Plus Expenses

Oh, man. I'm having all sorts of childhood flashbacks now...

While cleaning my basement the other day, I just found the complete hardcover set of Encyclopedia Brown books that I had shipped home when I worked for their publisher. These will replace the badly tattered copies that my mother sent from her basement to my children last year.

I will be happy to hold onto those hardcover Encyclopedia Brown books for you in the meantime. :-)

Donald J. Sobol's new ENCYCLOPEDIA BROWN mystery, the first in nearly five years, to coincide with the re-release of the series in paperback, to Mark McVeigh at Dutton, for publication in 2007, by Edward Necarsulmer IV at McIntosh & Otis.

So either I'll have to stay on the lookout for it, or find someone to get them for me as a present. :-)

Thanks for the info!

Well! There's a welcome face I haven't seen in quite a while! Since I'm approximately 65 days behind in my Publisher's Lunch reading, thanks for the tip.

I come for a lurk-visit from time to time.

The 25-cent retainer to be deposited in an old gas can in his garage office, IIRC.
