The Three Investigatorsthe Creative Archive

 



My interest in The Three Investigators goes back to the Fall of 1975 when I was in the First Grade. A classmate came to school one day carrying a very ragged, large-sized Scholastic copy of The Mystery of the Green Ghost with the covers missing. Despite the condition of the book and the fact that it looked like something for older kids, I was absolutely enthralled by the fantastic black and white Harry Kane illustrations and felt that I HAD TO HAVE THIS BOOK! I traded some trifle such as a pencil or an eraser to own the book. I remember struggling through the rather long Alfred Hitchcock introduction during recess and then tackling the first chapter on the bus ride home that afternoon. Looking back, the reading level was at least a year or two ahead of me and I undoubtedly didn't understand many of the words but somehow the writing of Robert Arthur was able to make quite an impression on me. Boy, was that an intense read for a 7-year old! That night I dreamed of a 'white' ghost and a creepy, broken-down old house. I woke up and tried to get in bed with my parents. The next morning my mom looked at my new book with disdain and threatened to throw it in the garbage (it actually looks as if that is where it was found to begin with) if it caused me any more problems. It took me several days to finish the book and it wasn't until a year or two later that I discovered that there were more Three Investigators books at the local library and I read all that could be found. Today that old, beat-up book (looking much as it did in 1975) holds a place of honor in my Three Investigators collection.
