This book contains three stories and my best one is second.
The second story's title is "Sherlock Holmes and the Important Exam Paper".
One day, a teacher at the university came and asked Holmes to find a person who tried to know the exam's answers befor the exam.
I like this story because Holmes expressed respect to the friendship between the student who tried to know the exam's answers and his friend,not only solve this happning.
I thought Holmes was very kind and cool man. ( )
