The Stone Idol is the 65th title of the Hardy Boys Mystery Stories, written by Franklin W. Dixon. Wanderer Books published the book in 1981 and Grosset & Dunlap published the book in 2005. The novel is a treasure hunting action-adventure story typical of this period in children's literature in the United States. The genre was popular in the late 1970s and 1980s in part due to the popularity of the Indiana Jones franchise. [1]
When an ancient stone idol disappears, the Hardy Boys are off on another fast-paced adventure. It's a mystery that takes the boys from a primitive village in the Andes Mountains to Antarctica and finally to Easter Island. By using their fine investigative skills, the Hardy Boys find that the mystery of the stone idol is not what it seems.
