Integrity always pays off and right wins over wrong. Andrew Svenson’s goal in writing the youth mystery novels series was to encourage a love of reading in children each book was planned so that the first page would draw the reader in with a dangerous or mysterious situation, and each chapter would end with a cliffhanger or exciting twist that encouraged the child to turn the page and keep reading.From Book 1: Hooray, The Happy Hollisters are back! First published in 1953, these charming mystery-adventure stories, faithfully reproduced, are available in e-book format for the very first time! Written for boys and girls between the ages of seven and eleven, The Happy Hollisters are wholesome books, with an accent on humor and good, clean fun.
Children love The Happy Hollisters for the excitement and intrigue, but parents and teachers also love them for their carefully detailed educational themes. The Happy Hollisters were designed to appeal to young readers, particularly those between the ages of 4 and 12 – the ages of the Hollister family children. The family has fun and adventures together, but when the mysteries arise, the independent Hollister children become amateur sleuths and are allowed to investigate and solve the mysteries on their own. Hollister owns The Trading Post, a hardware store and toy shop in fictional Shoreham, and is often assisted at the store by his tight-knit family. The Hollister family – Pete, Pam, Ricky, Holly, and Sue – were modeled on Svenson’s own children and their family life in Bloomfield, NJ. The Happy Hollisters books were all written by Andrew Svenson. Unlike those books, however, Jerry West was not a shared pen name. It was customary practice for the Stratemeyer Syndicate to assign pen names to series books, so that more than one author could contribute to the series for example, The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew series books were written by multiple authors, all of whom used the pseudonym Franklin W. The Happy Hollisters series is a children’s mystery/adventure series of books started in 1953 by the Stratemeyer Syndicate and author/partner Andrew E.
