Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library is a New York Times Bestseller featuring Kyle Keeley, the class clown admired by most kids, if not the teachers. He is an ardent fan of all games—board games, word games, and particularly video games.

Kyle's hero, Luigi Lemoncello, is the most notorious and creative game maker in the world and the genius behind the new town library. Lucky Kyle wins a coveted spot to be one of the first 12 kids in the library for an overnight of fun, food, and lots and lots of games.

However, when morning comes, the doors remain locked. Kyle and the other winners must solve every clue and secret puzzle to find the hidden escape route. The stakes are very high.

In this cross between Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Night at the Museum, Agatha Award winner Chris Grabenstein uses rib-tickling humour to create the perfect tale for his quirky characters. Old fans and new readers will become enthralled with the crafty twists and turns of this ultimate library experience.
