writing stories about adventures and mysteries. I like to watch movies with action and then go back and write about the movie, but with my own twist on it. I started to do this after my first discovery of a mystery book called The Hardy Boys by Franklin W. Dixon.

I would try to do things that would be next to impossible for a little kid to do, alone. For example, one day I was playing

I have read the Hardy Boys The Tower Treasure by Franklin W. Dixon. The Hardy Boys were delivering paper for their dad on their motorcycles. a blue car went flying by and then it went flying by again. They climbed the hill next to them and delivered the papers.

The newspaper felt more professional than most of the other newspapers I reviewed and it felt like it was something that the New York Times might release. It was easy to follow their train of thought and understand. The only issue I have with their newspaper is their font seemed to change a couple of times.

“12 O’clock Boys” was released in 2014 by Lofty Nathan and “We Real Cool” was written in 1960 by Gwendolyn Brooks. After reviewing each of the works carefully, I noticed that they contained interesting similarities as well as major differences. "12 O’clock Boys" plays like two separate films that are joined. One of them focuses on a group of young African-American men (most appear to be in their late teens, 20s and 30s) who ride their motor bikes around the inner-city Baltimore. They are depicted

The mystery genre is filled with classic books and authors. People like Agatha Christie, Edgar Allen Poe, and Arthur Conan Doyle introduced Mystery in the 1800s and 1900s. One of these prestigious authors, Franklin W. Dixon, was known for his stories about two detective brothers, named Frank and Joe Hardy. One of his numerous stories, titled The Hardy Boys Casefiles: Thick As Thieves, is about how the two detective brothers fall into a trap that can cost them their lives. At the beginning, Frank

Dixon uses description and dialogue to make you feel as if you are in the scene. “‘Your not leaving’ the government man said turning in his seat. ‘Get that clear.’ As the Hardys watched in horror, he emptied half the clip point-blank into their windshield.” Page 37.This quote shows that there is dialogue because the “Gray Man” is talking to the Hardy Brothers. This quote also has description because Dixon described the expression on the Hardy’s

In the story “Hardy Boys, Wheels of fire” by Franklin W. Dixon Joe and Frank go through many trouble only to stop are car thief. Throughout the story Joe's, the one of the main character's, core belief is tested very harshly. He believes strongly that he must always do the right thing.

The Hardy Boys series written by various authors, all under the pseudonym Franklin W. Dixon has been around for a very long time. Their first appearance was in 1927, and they have survived numerous reboots and reprints since then.
