Title: The Hardy Boys Mysteries: Book 1 The Tower Treasure
Author: Franklin W. Dixon
Published: 1927
Genre: Mystery
Summary: While delivering papers for their father, Frank and Joe Hardy almost get run off the road by a car traveling way over safe speeds for the small curving road. They don’t think much of it until they find the can in a ditch and their friend Chet’s car gets stolen. They work to get the car back and during the process find an even bigger mystery. The Tower Mansion was robbed, and their friend Perry’s dad is charged with the crime. Feeling that the two thefts are connected and wanting to help their friend, the Hardy boys work with their detective father to follow the clues and solve the mystery.
What I liked about it: There is something about the Hardy boys that makes their original books so interesting even 90 years later. They are fun and their adventures keep your attention until the end. They are written well and the boys have lots of fun and adventure with their friends.
Language: None
Romance: Both boys have girls that they like from school, but it is very simple, they like them and they go out sometimes. It is not really romantic.
Violence: They boys do get trapped and in some dangerous situations in the book but nothing graphic.
Magic: None.
Recommended Age: The boys are in High school, but the adventures are fun for lots of ages I would say 10-11+
