The Happy Hollisters



After reading the Thornton W. Burgess books, I went on reading more chapter books and a series that had a great impact on me was the Happy Hollisters, a fun loving family of kid sleuths that had adventures and solved mysteries. 

The Haunted House Mystery was my favorite, it had everything: a tree house, a gang of thieves and a suspiciously haunted house! This series gave me an appetite for mysteries and I went on to read as many of the Hardy Boy books as I could find and eventually graduated to Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot.

The Happy Hollisters series has had a resurgence in recent years, probably due to nostalgic Baby Boomers and they even have their own Facebook page:




And of course their own website:
