Charles McFarlane is thought to have written the first 16 books in the series, while the outlines and plots to the initial books were brought to life by Edward Stratemeyer. The daughters of Edward (Edna & Harriet) are thought to have continued the work, alongside various other editors and writers. In the late 1950's, some of the titles were we-written and shortened to 20 chapters each, while making the content more politically correct for the time. Many fans however, prefer to read the original texts, such as this one.view less
