I was a mystery. It makes you feel like you were there. You can have it read aloud or to yourself. There are puzzles in the book. Any kids that need a good book I recommend reading Mr. Lemoncello's Library and the next book, Mr. Lemoncello's Library Olympics. Enjoy Reading.

Mr. Lemoncello, also a game maker billionaire, grew up in a town in Ohio, but the library he loved as a kid isn't there when he comes back. he builds a new, modern library and holds a contest for the 7th graders at the school in town to write an essay. The winners get to stay the night and play a game, or a puzzle to escape from the library without the front doors, but with clues.
Chris grabenstein is a genius! He made me hate the people that Kyle hates.

Hello readers, I just finished reading Escape From Mr.Lemonchellos Library by Chris Grabenstein. This book is a futuristic realistic-ficton book. It is for ages 6 and 1/3 and up. It is about a kid who loves to play Mr.Lemonchellos games like everybody else because he is famous. One day kyle heard about a new library coming out that has holograms and many other awesome stuff. Twelve students who do the best essays get to be the first in the library and get to sleep over there and Kyle is one of the students. Later at the library they here whoever can get out of the library first without using the fire exits or main door gets to be Famous with Mr.Lemonchello! It is a race between the 12 students to see WHO WILL BE THE WINNER!! This book is very exiting because in the book there are many challenges and cool rooms for the students. You should defiantly read this book! I recommend it and give it 5 out of 5 stars! P.S this book is not only for kids who love reading, it is also for kids who like electronics because there is video cameras, holograms and more in this book! Hope you like it!
