Mystery-loving Trixie!

Hey, everybody!
Not many people have heard of the Trixie Belden series by Julie Campbell, but that's because it started in 1948 and ended in 1986.
The books are about Trixie, a thirteen-year-old and her best friend Honey who moves in next door. They are both complete opposites, but the two become best friends. They also have a knack for solving mysteries.
Along with the others, such as Jim Frayne and other supporting characters, they solve all sorts of puzzling mysteries.
The setting is mostly the countryside town of Sleepyside.
Trixie loves horses and she's usually does something before she thinks. Honey is a rich girl who is very cautious and is great at swimming.
Julie Campbell was an American writer. Her Trixie Belden books have been reprinted with different covers and publishers over and over again. She has also written the Ginny Gordon books.
I recommend this book for ages 8 to 12. This is also a refreshing change from the Nancy Drew series, and I can't wait to get my hands on another one!
I love these books because there are always a lot of clues and and suspects which is always good.
You guys should really read this series: it's so cool!
