HIT-->Mystery Picture Books (fwd)

["Pamela J. Tinker" <pjtinker@MAILBOX.SYR.EDU>]

I had several requests to post the results of this request as a hit--here
it is! I hope no one minds the condensation--many people responded with
many duplications.

I would like to thank all who responded to my plea for picture books which
could be used as an example of mystery as a genre. Your immediate
responses were extremely helpful. Once again, you saved the day (and won
praises)!

In addition to the following list of mystery picture book titles, I
received ordering information for this potentially helpful resource which
I have ordered but not yet received:
