Carmen Sandiego Nabbed by 8-Year-Old Super Sleith !!

Broderbund Software's best-selling Carmen Sandiego games have been on the
leading edge of educational software since 1985. Student and adult players
learn history, geography and research skills as they chase Carmen and her
gang of criminals across the country, around the world and through time.

As if the life of an international thief wasn't difficult enough, Carmen is
now being pursued by a new army of Acme Agency detectives, many of them as
young as 8 years of age. Our sources tell us that Carmen is baffled by
this sudden surge in the Acme ranks. How is it possible that the
undisputed Queen of Crime must now fear the detective skills of an 8
year-old child? Carmen knows that a third grader can't read the World
Almanac, not to mention Fodor's U.S.A. How can it be that third graders
are suddenly rising to the rank of Super Sleuth?

What Carmen doesn't know is that Hayden Books is publishing a new series of
companion books for the Carmen Sandiego games. The Carmen Discovery Series
is written for Acem detectives of all ages, but one of the primary goals
of this series is to bring the run and the educational benefits of the
Carmen Sandiego games to very young children. For these young detectives,
the books in the Carmen Discovery Series replace the reference books that
come with the Carmen Sandiego games.

For older children and adults, the Carmen Discovery Series enhances the
educational value of the games. Players learn where the answer to each
clue can be found in the game's reference book. Special sections summarize
and supplement the lessons taught by each game. The companion book for
Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? is the only book anywhere that
defines the thousands of names, events, foods and phrases mentioned in the
Deluxe Edition of the game.

The Carmen Discovery Series includes The Where in the World is Carmen
Sandiego? Book, The Where in the U.S.A. is Carmen Sandiego? Book, The
Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego? Book, and The Where in America"s Past is
Carmen Sandiego? Book. The Carmen Discovery Series, by Barbara Rieman and
Roy Rieman, is published in trade paperback by Hayden Books. The Carmen
Discovery Series is available at major book and software stores. Each book
is sold separately, with a suggested retail price of $14.95.
