Hone your Detective Skills


© Jillian Louise Gregory

This month, I have decided to help get your brain in gear for school. It's time to sweep up any summer dust from your brain by solving a few mysteries. I've found an amazing, fun website that has mysteries, games, and more.

Do you consider yourself a great detective? Maybe you are not a super detective like Sherlock Holmes, but you enjoy reading mysteries. In either case, you will enjoy checking out the
FIN, FUR, AND FEATHER BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION
(F.F.F.B.I.) at http://www.fffbi.com .

What is the FFFBI?
The FFFBI is a place where field agents such as chickens, hamsters, and weasels go on missions to solve cases about cultures in different areas all over the world. For example, one pressing mission concerns a "Cyber Toothed Tiger" villain that is going to corrupt signals in the World Wide Web. Another mission has to do with valuable art work in San Francisco. Napoleon Penguin, Deputy Director of the FFFBI, will tell you the facts of the case and the villains you will need to uncover. Go on a mission. They are fun and will have your brain all warmed up when school starts.

The FFFBI also has fun games you can play online. One game is called "Perp Walk." A crime has been committed and it is your job to figure out which animal is the culprit. You interview each animal suspect, logically determine the culprit, and point your finger at them in a lineup. It is a great way to test your observation and logic skills! You can also play games like "World Trivia" and even listen to mystery radio dramas.

There are many more fun facts, agent profiles, and global information to explore on this website. There are color graphics and cool audio and video clips to enjoy. Get into the action and help out the agents of the FFFBI.
