Edward Stratemeyer & Adventures in Fiction Publishing

I talk boys books passed down through generations, including classic adventure series like the Hardy Boys. I also examine the life and contributions of Edward Stratemeyer, the mastermind behind the Hardy Boys, Tom Swift, and the Bobbsey Twins. Inspired by these classics, I share my own venture in children's literature with my new book series, 'The Adventures of Leo and Henry.
