5.0 out of 5 stars great Hardy Boy book, July 8, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Lure of the Italian Treasure (The Hardy Boys #157) (Paperback)

This book is really cool, there's lots of action and it is in Italy. It seems scary at first but the end is very exciting and impressive. I would recommend it for kids of all ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Lure of the Italian Treasure, February 4, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Lure of the Italian Treasure (The Hardy Boys #157) (Paperback)

This book was great. It was full of suspense and irony. Except for the very beginning it keeps you in the story the whole time. You can never predict who the stealer is. I think anybody can read this and understand it.
