Summary: The book that began a dynasty!
Review: Kudos to Applewood books for re-issuing this original text Hardy Boys book that started a line- up of great stories for youth that are still being published today. Most younger baby-boomers will not remember this story in its original form, as the text was substantially revised in the latter 1950's. This earlier, more hearty (no pun intended) story makes the revision pale by comparison. Applewood's reissue of Tower Treasure puts the series in its proper context. This story is truly the reader's introduction to Frank and Joe Hardy, and their mysteries. More than just nostalgia, this book is fun to read. If you read it to your children, you may have to put some of it in proper historical context, but that's part of the fun. I have found all of the original-text stories much more entertaining and substantial than the revised editions. Applewood has released six original-text Hardy's so far. I own them all, and highly recommend each one. In fact, I plan to purchase any of the original text Hardy stories Applewood will issue.

Summary: A Great Opening to the Series that I love
Review: The Book is very good. It (as many books from this series do) contain not 1 but several mysteries. 2 stolen cars, a wigged thief, a hold up, a robbery and all with a great surprise twist at the end. PLUS... it is the first one so this is a must read for hardy fans!

Summary: really good book
Review: The Hardy Boys book was really good. The book starts off with a robbery of expensive jewels from the tower. The owner of the tower thinks that Mr.Robinson stole the jewels. The hardy boys don't think Mr. Robinson stole the jewels because he's a nice man. The hardy boys are trying to help Mr. Robinson by finding the real jewel thief. They find the jewels and keep the reward and prove Mr. Robinson innocent. I reccomend someone to read this book. THE END

Review: The Hardy Boys Mystery series - the original classics (not rewritten) are excellent for the young reader. Here we see excitement, mystery, challenge and intrigue in the foreground and true character and values in the background. There is enough to keep the young readers attention and expand their minds in realistic situations NOT FANTASY. You always feel part of the mystery itself without feeling personaly threatened or scared.In the background the young reader gets to know the Hardy family well. A family where two young boys obey and look up to their father, a father who loves and respects his wife and children, a mother who loves, cares and provides for her husband and children and a family that is revered in the community because of their character. WHO CAN ARGUE? The HArdy Boys Mystery series, excellent reading to build strong minds with character and conviction.

Summary: A Good Mystery Book
Review: The Hardy Boys Tower Treasure by Franklin W. Dixon is about two teenage brothers trying to figure out who stole friend Chet Morgan's car.
The boys nemes are Frank And Joe Hardy. They are the main characters in this story. They go to Bayport high school. The story takes place in the 50's I would say by the way the boys dress and the way the author explains the story.
The story starts out when the boys find out that their friends car ''the queen''has been stolen. The story turns into a much bigger mystery when they find out that the thief has robbed the Tower Mansion. Can the boys find the thiefor will he roam free?
I thought this book was very good. I can't wait to read the others. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a good old fashioned mystery book.
