    When I was a child, I love reading a series by Enid Blyton – the Adventure series. There was the Island of Adventure, Sea of Adventure, and many more. And I loved them all!

    This treasure hunter series sounds like right up my alley. Lost treasure, sailing the seas, exploring the world. I can see myself reading and being a part of this other world.

    And I would love to introduce this to my 7 year old niece. She is starting to explore novels, and I believe this would be an ideal choice. Thank you for sharing this. I look forward to buying the first book and sharing it with my niece.

    • Tracy

      A fellow reader! I’m happy to hear that you looked over the Treasure Hunter’s Series. These stories are pretty exciting. I’m confident that your niece will love the novels. I have never read the Adventure series by Enid Blyton, I may need to give them a try. Come back often, there are many more novels and series that I will be adding. Have a wonderful day. Happy Reading!

    Ok… your post makes the series sound so interesting and exciting. When I was younger, I loved to read all of the books in particular series. I have no doubt that this particular series would have been on my “To Read” list.

    • Tracy

      Hi Colleen! Thanks for stopping by! I’m happy to hear that you think the Treasure Hunters Series sounds interesting and exciting, it really is. I bet you would have enjoyed it when you were younger and I bet you would also like it now ; ) Check out my other post, I’m sure you will find something you just have to read! Have a great day!

  • David Palla

    Thi is a very informative piece Tracy, I must confess that I’m not very much into novels and fiction but you have add this series so attractive. The clarity with which you  have brought out the themes of the series make it very easy to follow. The age bracket of the kids when they were left with their parents is unclear and makes one very anxious about how they could face all that danger and survive. Your writing makes the series very thrilling and I think I will create time to go through it. 

    So, yes, this a nice piece and it ha really encouraged me to consider this series 

    Thanks Tracy

    Hi there, I’ve been browsing all of the wonderful books you have posted here and I would love to start my christmas shopping by getting a few of these titles for my grand kids. The grandkids mother decided to get them a Kindle reader, so it wiill be great if they come in a digital version. However, I still think you can’t beat the hard versions so might go for those instead anyway. 

    • Tracy

      Thank you for visiting! Yes they do come in the digital version and the hard version. I am a fan of the hardcover books and would choose them over anything else. But times change and to each their own. As long as we are reading, it really doesn’t matter what or how. James Patterson has so many different genres’ to choose from. I know that you will get the best gifts ever! Have a wonderful day and come back to visit anytime!
