Try the Encyclopedia Brown series by Donald Sobol if you enjoy mysteries but find reading them in English difficult. Each book contains about 10 short mysteries.

Sobol cranked out the first book in the series, Encyclopedia Brown, Boy Detective, in just two weeks. That first book contained all the elements that would show up in all the other books: the idyllic setting, the 25-cent fee, the roster of regular baddies like dimwitted Bugs Meany, leader of the Tigers gang.
