Zoraida Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I'm trying to remember the name of a mystery series that I read as a kid that involved a family of brothers and sisters solving mysteries. This would not be The Boxcar Children series, The Bobbsey Twins, Trixie Beldon's or any of the Enid Blyton books. I keep thinking the last name of the family was Holloway. I have done a google search for children mystery series and am not coming up with anything. I think this series may have been written in the 60's or 70's not sure though. It could have been written in the 50's. Any help with this would be great. Blessings Zoraiada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mawirth Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 thanks! I'm in need of a new mystery series for my daughter to read and our library carries these--I never heard of them Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRAAB Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 These were my absolutely favorite books. I have all of them and am now re-reading to my 3rd group of children. Growing up I was an only for 8 yrs., and I dreamed of coming from a family of 5. Never happened, but I now 5 of my own. Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Mc in SC Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 These were my favorite too, so much so that I collected the whole series for my son. He loved them but my daughter never liked them -- she's a Trixie Belden girl :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquelyn in NC Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 We had the entire Happy Hollister set when I was growing up, and I wanted them for my dd. Sadly, they are out of print now, but eBay always has a lot for sale. Try there if you can't find many at your library or local used book stores.

Country Girl Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Thanks for posting about this. My son loves mysteries and he is running out of Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew. Our library actually has some of these so I will add it to the list for our next trip. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
