I've been trying t oget my son to read Hardy Boys. He won't even try. He likes reading. Loves it really. I don't understand why he won't try the Hardy Boys. I think he'd like them if he tried them. *sigh*

If you can get him to read the first one he'll be hooked. I loved that series as a kid. Another favorite of mine was Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators. What kid wouldn't want to be part of a team of private investigators who made their headquarters in an old trailer in the midst of a salvage yard?

The Hardys and Nancy Drew are still in print, but I haven't seen a copy of the Three Investigators in years.

Don't give up on the Hardy Boys. Wholesome stories with challenging vocabulary.

Get dad to do a few read out loud and maybe it will catch on.
