I remember a series by, i think, Willard Price that was about two brothers having various jungle adventures.<br /><br />i'm another who read Jack London, too. There was a copy in my other grandad's house.<br /><br />Then Moorcock, Horror and some sci-fi before moving on to more "serious" books. <br /><br />And hey, where's all the love for Paddington bear??!!Jay Stringerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08764183157841848163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119990365479009764.post-4024587172786581222010-05-07T10:47:10.293-05:002010-05-07T10:47:10.293-05:00Like, you, I loved the Three Investigators much mo...Like, you, I loved the Three Investigators much more than the Hardy Boys. I think it was mainly because T3I were suburban kids like me. Their clubhouse was awesome! I even built a fort in my backyard whose only door was in the floor, just like Jupiter's. I re-read the first book a year or so back. Heck, now I can't remember much of it. I vastly preferred the books where AH was the sponsor versus the other guy.Scott D.

The books I read and re-read (and re-read and re-read...) were Jack London's THE CALL OF THE WILD and Edgar Rice Burroughs' TARZAN OF THE APES, which, in retrospect, probably says a lot about my social skills.Dana Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350344882342624735noreply@blogger.com
