If you haven't read any of the Mildred A. Wirt mysteries then you are really missing out.  Ms. Wirt wrote many of the Nancy Drew mysteries under the pen name of Carolyn Keene.  She didn't write all of them, but a great many of the early ones.  Her Penny Nichols mystery series & her Penny Parker mystery series were written under her real name & are wonderful for any age.  A child of 10 would love them as well as an adult with no worry about the subject matter or any bad language, there simply isn't any.  I am over 60 & I love them! They are a wonderful read for anybody who likes mysteries.  They're all free on Kindle so why not try them?  In The Vanishing Houseboat Penny Parker must solve the mysterious disappearance of a family's houseboat & the mystery of an old mansion where people who stay in Room 7 simply vanish during the night.  Very good suspense & lots of fun to read.  Any young person who likes Nancy Drew will certainly like these books too.  Do yourself a favor & try them.  You won't be sorry.
