  • KEENE, Carolyn
    KEENE, Carolyn Harriet Stratemeyer Adams Geboren: 1892. Overleden: 1982 Zoals veel juniorenmysteries, is de Nancy Drew-serie bedacht en werd (althans in het begin) de plot geschetst door Edward Stratemeyer [> Franklin W. Dixon] van het Stratemeyer Concern. Zijn dochter, Harriet Stratemeyer Adams nam later de uitgeverij over en claimde lange tijd de schrijver te zijn van àlle Nancy Drew-verhalen vanaf 1930 tot 1982. Onderzoek bracht aan het licht dat dit niet het geval was. De Nancy-verhalen werden, evenals andere Stratemeyer-series, geschreven door een aantal voorheen anonieme professionele schrijvers, waarvan de belangrijkste Mildred A. Wirt Benson (zie onder) was tot het moment dat Harriet Adams in 1953 (vanaf nummer 30) inderdaad begon met het schrijven van nieuwe delen en ook de oude delen vanaf 1959 reviseerde. Opmerkelijk en uniek is de zorgvuldigheid waarmee geprobeerd werd alle sporen omtrent de ‘echte’ auteurs uit te wissen. Byzantijnse plotten en samenzweringen werden gesmeed om veranderde copyrights; dossiers van The Library of Congress verdwenen en niet bestaande overheidsambtenaren werden opgevoerd om de namen van de ware schrijvers uit de boeken te laten verdwijnen.

  • Nancy Drew Games
    • Escape the Smoky Intrigue of a Hometown Inferno! A local contest turns into an arson scene and now deceit smolders among the charred ruins of the River Heights Town Hall. Police have several suspects, but well-placed incriminating evidence and poisonous local gossip compelled authorities to make only one arrest: Nancy Drew. Can you, as the teenage detective and her closest friends, catch the real arsonist and extinguish the accusations among the embers? (link here: https://www.herinteractive.com/shop-games/nancy-drew-alibi-in-ashes/) • Infiltrate a Carnevale of Criminals in Italy! Somewhere beyond the bright piazzas and open markets of the Venice Carnevale lurks a masked thief. Despite months of investigations, the Italian police remain helpless as stolen treasures vanish in the night. That’s why the authorities asked you, as detective Nancy Drew, to join the case to infiltrate a dangerous crime syndicate and catch this phantom thief before he or she destroys the heart of Venice in Nancy Drew: The Phantom of Venice! (link here: https://www.herinteractive.com/shop-games/nancy-drew-the-phantom-of-venice/) • Defuse a Toxic Plot and Reveal the Truth Behind Kate Drew’s Death! Nearly a decade ago Agent Kate Drew left home to neutralize a biochemical weapon in Scotland. While her assignment was a success, Kate died in a car accident; or so we were told. Now the echoes of a similar plot reverberate and it’s up to you, as detective Nancy Drew, to thwart the sleeper cell and expose the truth about your mother’s tragic demise.

  • Girl Detective Super Mystery #1, Where's Nancy?
    Drew Review: Nancy Drew: Girl Detective Super Mystery #1, Where’s Nancy? reviewed by Todd H. Latoski Page 17 “Sometimes it’s not easy having a friend like Nancy Drew.” This is what George thinks as she and Bess are waiting for their friend to meet them for lunch. Only Nancy doesn’t meet them – nor does she show up for her date with her boyfriend, Ned Nickerson! What has happened to Nancy Drew? And if she is gone, who is going to solve the mystery and find her? If you have ever wondered what it would be like to see George or Bess try and solve a mystery without the sleuthing skills of Nancy Drew, now’s your chance! June sees the publication of the very first Nancy Drew, Girl Detective Super Mystery – Where’s Nancy? Just like the regular Girl Detective series, it is written in the first-person narrative, only with an exciting new twist! Instead of Nancy narrating the story, readers get an opportunity for the first time to get into the heads of Nancy’s best friends, George Fayne and Bess Marvin! In alternating style like the new Hardy Boys: Undercover Brothers series, Where’s Nancy? begins with George narrating, while the next chapter allows Bess to tell the story, then back and forth with each alternating chapter. They relate to readers the story of how Nancy disappears, and how the two of them must draw on all the lessons they’ve learned from their friend to solve the mystery and find Nancy! Ned is along for the ride, as well as Nancy’s father and everyone’s favorite nemesis, Deirdre.

LaRoque's "A Bright and Promising Future for Adolescent Literature"), particular types of this literature (e.g., Nicholas J. Karolides' "Focus on Black Adolescents"), and particular books, (e.g., Beverly Haley's "'The Pigman'- -Use It1"). Also included is an extensive list of current books and articles on adolescent literature, adolescents' reading interests, and how these books relate to the teaching of English..The bibliography is divided into (1) general bibliographies,(2) histories and criticism of adolescent literature, CO dime novels, (4) adolescent literature before 1940, (5) reading interest studies, (6) modern adolescent literature, (7) adolescent books in the schools, and (8) comments about young people's reading.

  • The Hardy Boys: Bay Rat Literature
    Quick, Timely Reads Reading in the Time of Coronavirus On the Waterfront The Hardy Boys: Bay Rat Literature By David Frew February 2021 Dr. David Frew, a prolific writer, author, and speaker, grew up on Erie's lower west side as a proud "Bay Rat," joining neighborhood kids playing and marauding along the west bayfront. He has written for years about his beloved Presque Isle and his adventures on the Great Lakes. In this series, the JES Scholar-in-Residence takes note of of life in and around the water. Here is the typical 1950s era Bay Rat bookshelf. Who says we weren’t intellectuals? During the early 1950s, one of my traditional Christmas gifts from Santa was a “Hardy Boys” book. I read them ravenously and had a large collection. Some were better than others, with personal favorites that I read over and over being the “Secret Tower Mystery” and the “Secret of the Old Mill.” By the time that I became interested in them, they were obviously dated, having been written in the late 1920s. But I was able to overlook the obviously stuffy and too-old references to things like “automobiles instead of cars,” and “trousers instead of pants.” I still have my collection, although it is packed away in boxes. One of the most positive aspects of my Hardy Boys reading habit was a discovery of the Erie Book Store on French Street and its basement used book department. I became a regular customer, visiting often to hunt for used Hardy Boys books. Sometimes, when I was unable to find one, I was drawn to other inexpensive offerings and often purchased them.

  • 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This Chapter Presents an Introduction
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This chapter presents an introduction consisting of background, Formulation of Problem, Research Objectives, Research Significance, and definition of key terms. 1.1 Background Detective fiction was begun in 1840 by Edgar Allan Poe who is later known as “the father” detective fiction, and continued by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle with his Sherlock Holmes as detective character in his novel in the end of the nineteenth century and it becomes famous in that age. Cawelti (1976: 89) argues that. “The classical or ratiocinative detective story was first clearly articulated by Edgar Allan Poe in the 1840’s, but it did not become a widely popular genre until the end of the nineteenth century. Its period of greatest popularity was initiated by the enormous success of Canon Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories, and it flourished in the first four decades of the twentieth century”. The popularity of detective fiction by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle with his Sherlock Holmes was continued when Agatha Christie created Hercules Poirot as detective in her novels and it was remarkable reward and also it was a golden age for detective fiction. In United States, the 80s the Hardy Boys novel was very popular and became one of the American reading options for teenagers. Until 2005 (the title 1 changed to The Hardy Boys: Undercover Brother), this series has reached more than 200 volumes. The uniqueness of this series is from the people who are behind the process. All The Hardy Boys series were written by many ghostwriters and published using pen names, Franklin W.
