My favourite book is "The adventures of Sherlock Holmes".  The book was  written by Arthur Conan Doyle,  the famous writer from Scotland in 1891. The book about the famous detective is popular all over the world.  Sherlock Holmes and his friend Doctor Watson investigate different crimes in London of the 19th century.  Sherlock Holmes uses his famous method of deduction to solve these crimes.  He looks for stolen jewels, finds missing people and points to the murderers.  The stories are exceptionally interesting and exciting.  Many of them were made into  films.
