I loved, loved, loved Trixie Belden mysteries when I was in elementary/middle school in the late 1970s/early 1980s. I wanted to solve the mysteries right along with Trixie, and I wanted to have brothers and a best friend, Honey. The reviews on Amazon are written by people around my age, who loved Trixie Belden as a child and are giving these books to their own children.
Random Books for Young Readers republished Trixie Belden books in 2003 (with new covers, of course). If your child likes mysteries or your students enjoy following clues and trying to figure out whodunnit, then why not try giving Trixie Belden a read? She would be great for a whole class read-aloud, a literature circle group, or even a bedtime story for a few weeks.
Who do you like better–Trixie Belden or Nancy Drew?
