I got this book because my Dad pointed this out to me. I thought it was really good because it explains what it feels like to be a kid that other kids appreciate. I learned that it is ok to do what you want to do in life and take risks if you have to,

A perfect murder
A faceless witness
A lone courtroom champion knows the whole truth . . . and he’s only thirteen years old
Meet Theodore Boone
In the small city of Strattenburg, there are many lawyers, and though he’s only thirteen years old, Theo Boone thinks he’s one of them. Theo knows every judge, policeman, court clerk—and a lot about the law. He dreams of being a great trial lawyer, of a life in the courtroom.
But Theo finds himself in court much sooner than expected. Because he knows so much—maybe too much—he is suddenly dragged into the middle of a sensational murder trial. A cold-blooded killer is about to go free, and only Theo knows the truth.
The stakes are high, but Theo won’t stop until justice is served.
Brimming with the intrigue and suspense that made John Grisham a #1 international bestseller and the undisputed master of the legal thriller, Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer will keep readers guessing and pages turning.

I read this book a while ago but I ablsolutly loved it! And even though I'm going into High School I still enjoy reading the sequels! What I really like about this series is that the same mystery goes on through every book, so you have read all the books to know what how it is solved.
This book is sooo great, it's about a boy who is sooo into the law, and they tell you some problems that are going on too.
I love this book, Theodore Boone Kid Lawyer is a great book if you want to know some law, and have some fun with a little fiction-mystery

I love this book, it's mainly about a kid who really gets into the law
very very very cool. It is a mystery that makes life come true. it is like sliping into a better version of my own world.
This was my favorite book ever! No, scratch that, my favorite series ever! I love that everybody that needs help with the law gets it well from Theo. I love that he is so caring and helps his friend's cousin even though he is an illegal immigrant. The plot is so juicy that I just couldn't put it down. I finished this book in one night! Gr8t book!!!!!
Great mystery, It made the law easy to understand
I enjoyed John Grisham's adult novels and was excited to see that he is writing a novel indented for lower grades. This was a great read! Very action packed and informative, just like the adult books! I recommend this book to many of my boy readers and they end up LOVING the series and anxiously await the next title.
