The Extraordinary Education of Nicholas Benedict Review: Worthy of a Newbery Medal - I met Trenton Lee Stewart after a concert in central Arkansas several years ago. It was a funny experience because I had not read much of the Mysterious Benedict Society (if any of it) and I knew he was famous for it but couldn't think of anything to say to him. I wanted to smack my forehead afterward because it was silly to have a chance to rub shoulders with a literary celebrity but waste the opportunity by several moments of silence. Anyway. I read the MBS series and thought they were good. A little hard to get into sometimes, but my sons love them and have read them multiple times. But then they persuaded me to set aside my grownup fare and read THIS book, insisting it was Stewart's best yet. I read the first chapter and found that I couldn't put it down. It has a narrative pace that is much more compelling than the MBS books. Its characters are more real. Its plot has neatly executed intricacies that satisfy. Its message is uplifting and inspiring. I agree with my sons -- this is Trenton Lee Stewart's best work thus far! And now if I were to meet him again, I would have plenty to say to him, including to express my hope that it has been submitted to the Newbery committee. It is every bit as good as Louis Sachar's "Holes"; in fact I like it even more because of its power to make me want to be better, kinder -- to use my gifts to help those I care about, like Nicholas Benedict. Review: A Prequel My Nephew Completely Enjoyed From Start to Finish - I bought this as a gift for my nephew, and he found it to be an entertaining read with a fabulous mix of adventure and mystery. The story kept him engaged with relatable characters and clever writing that made it easy and enjoyable to read. It also works really well as a prequel to the Benedict Society series and gives a satisfying connection to the larger story. He especially liked how the main character overcomes challenges in creative ways, which made the book even more interesting and fun to follow. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #34,737 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #185 in Children's Mystery, Detective, & Spy #1,079 in Children's Friendship Books #1,263 in Children's Action & Adventure Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (1,543) | | Dimensions | 5.3 x 1.38 x 7.7 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | Grade level | 3 - 7 | | ISBN-10 | 0316176206 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0316176200 | | Item Weight | 15.7 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 496 pages | | Publication date | April 9, 2013 | | Publisher | Little, Brown Books for Young Readers | | Reading age | 9 - 12 years, from customers | ## Images ![The Extraordinary Education of Nicholas Benedict - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/916iJ4LcKaL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worthy of a Newbery Medal *by M***R on September 27, 2012* I met Trenton Lee Stewart after a concert in central Arkansas several years ago.
