The Books of Ecclesiastes, Proverbs, Solomon's Song and some of the Psalms have traditionally been attributed to King Solomon. However, modern scholars dismiss Solomon as the author of any of these, on linguistic, content and historical grounds. For example, they say that Ecclesiastes was actually written in the second century BCE, many centuries after the time of Solomon. King Solomon did not really write any book that is part of the Old Testament.

What books are missing from the Old Testament?

It depends on whose perspective you are looking at the Old Testament from. The books missing from the KJV and the Hebrew Old testament include Book of Jasher, Book of the Wars of the Lord, and Book of Songs. In addition, the Heather Bible has Acts of Solomon, Annals of King David and the Book of Samuel the Seer. The Hebrew and Protestant Bibles also lack the Apocrypha, parts of which show up in different canons in the Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Syriac, and Ethiopian. Each of those four canons has different sets of Apocryphal books and each has books lacking in all three of the others, especially in the Ethiopian canon.
