By: Scott Lobdell, Based on the series by Franklin W. Dixon
In the second book of the series the Hardy boys are new agents for ATAC (American Teens Against Crime). The Hardy family is moving and the boys find themselves having a hard time interacting with other teens because they are secret agents. The second case is one about identity theft. A young lady underwent plastic surgery in a mysterious clinic and her family now does not recognize her. This graphic novel is a type of text that is not traditionally found in the classroom. Hardy boys is a series that many children know and I think reading a book in the format of a graphic novel will help students broaden their literature skills. Graphic novels can be fun and sometimes a little confusing to read, so I think can learn to be flexible readers. Also, this novel had some unexpected twists and turns that would be fun to see what the students’ predictions would be. As a class we could work on making predictions and making sure to use evidence from the text to support our ideas.
