Rating: Summary: A case of mistaken identity Review: Although the original version of this story was one of my favorites, this revised version has lost all of the charm the original had. Young readers will probably enjoy this tale that tkes place in the caves along the coast by the Hardy Boys home town of Bayport.
Rating: Summary: This is one of the best Hardy Boys books I've ever read Review: Because There Was a Bank Robery And Three Other Mysteries it Was Cool And So On
Rating: Summary: A great series Review: I read the missing chums. It was very exiting. I coulden't put the book down. I have also read many other Hardy Boy mysteries, they were all excellent. I want to order all 345 books. I would reccommend reading these exciting mysteries.
Rating: Summary: Frank and Joe venture out to find their 2 missing friends Review: I think that The Missing Chums is one of Franklin W. Dixons best books ever.
I wouldn't rate it 10 but it really does deserve an eight.
The hermit is a good idea and so is Hermit Island.
The Hardy Boys Mystery Series is one of my favourite
collection of books and detective books are GREAT
Rating: Summary: Aunt Gertrude At Her Best Review: I think this Hardy Boy book (in its original version) was the first of the series to feature the ever-visiting Aunt Gertrude, who shone like an absoloute gem. At the point where Biff and Tony have disappeared, and Frank and Joe announce they want to pursue their two friends, Aunt Gertrude chimes up and puts her foot down. Two boys have gone missing, she says. Now two more boys want to go searching for them -- and likely will end up missing themselves. So then, two more boys will have to go seeking the Hardys, and then two more, and so on... until there are no longer any boys at all left in Bayport. I hope the Hardys had a large house, because a little bit of Aunt Gertrude certainly would go a long way. Mrs. Hardy must have been a genuine angel, to tolerate her husband's know-it-all, overbearing sister just showing up and dropping in all the time, to stay for visits of indefinite duration.

Rating: Summary: The FOUND Best Book On Earth Review: It a great boook! I recommened it to everyone who loves The Hardy Boys like me! It was a great book piled with mysetery and suspence.
Rating: Summary: Your chumms will love it. Review: The Missing Chumms didn't quite get 5 stars but was still a masterpiece.In my opinion it is one of the best Hardy Boys books ever.It is nowhere near the best but is still one of the best.I know you and your chumms will love it.
Rating: Summary: Audio tape edition read by Bill Irwin Review: These books are absolutely delightful on audio tape. I grew up reading all the Nancy Drew books but, true to stereotype, never read any of The Hardy Boys. As the mother of two little boys (first and third grade) I began exploring these in our read-aloud time every evening. The boys LOVE them but the whole series (50+ books) is a bit more than I want read as an adult and a daunting quantity of material even for very advanced readers so I was delighted to come across these audio tapes. Bill Irwin does an excellent job of reading the books, treating their slightly dated language and manners with complete respect. The tapes are unabridged although still only two tapes long. My only gripe is the wait for the series as the publisher appears to be releasing only two books every six months or so!
