Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library / Chris Grabenstein 304 p.

Kyle Keeley loves to play board games.  His whole family loves board games.  They especially love the games by Mr. Lemoncello.  When Mr. Lemoncello designs the town's new library and is having an invitation only lock-in for the first night, Kyle is bound to be there.  The real challenge is in the getting out.  Those chosen few learn that "the way out is not the way in".  Mr. L. has a really big prize for the winner.  This is a delightful read.  The entire library is a board game.  The clues are in the books.  And Mr. Lemoncello even speaks in book titles (avid readers will get a kick out of this). Librarians will get a kick out of it.
