The Three Investigators

Did anyone here ever read this series? I loved the books growing up.

Loved them when I was a kid. My absolute favorite series growing up. I even tracked a couple of E-books books down 8-10 years ago and read them to my son.

Sad my boy isn't much of a reader. I was hoping they would click with him and we could read more of them together. Didn't happen though.

I read a ton of them as a kid in the 70s. My uncle who is 4 years older than me read them and passed them on to me.

Pretty sure I read them all. Travelling about in a limo, secret headquarters in a junk yard, solving mysteries. Loved those books as a kid.

I've literally never heard of this series. My step-father had me reading The Hardy Boys tho.

An uncle of mine wrote one the Hardy Boys books. I used to think the whole series was written by him, until I found out that pretty much every one of them is a different author.

Even knowing I had a personal connection to the Hardy Boys, I still could't get into the series. Three Investigators had me hooked. I loved the stories, and some of the book covers I still remember to this day.

Loved those books!! Remember reading them when I was in grade school....just devoured them. My grade school got the whole series as a gift from a rich older couple in our small town.

I loved those better than the Hardy Boys...

Also read the Bronc Burnett series too.

A a kid over 50 years ago, I loved the Encyclopedia Brown books to solve a little mystery.

I loved that genre (Kid detectives) when I was a youngster . . .

Three Investigators, Brains Benton, Power Brothers, Hardy Boys, etc.

Loved them as a kid and wanted to get them for my oldest a couple of years ago. Then I found how expensive they would be to buy.Ove
