About the 39 Clues Book Series:
The 39 Clues is a new series spanning 10 books, 355 trading cards, and an online game where readers play a part in the story and compete for prizes. The books will be written by different authors, starting with books by Rick Riordan, Gordon Korman and Peter Lerangis.
The 39 Clues series begins with the death of Grace Cahill, grandmother of the main characters Amy and Dan. Just before her death, Mrs. Cahill added the following to her will, creating the premise for the plot. "For your inheritance, you may have the first of thirty-nine clues. The first team to successfully put together the clues, which are scattered across the world, will discover the secret of Cahill power and become the richest, most important people in history." The 39 Clues books set the story, and the cards, website and game allow kids to participate in it.
Kids visit the website - www.the39clues.com - and discover they are lost members of the Cahill family. They set up online accounts where they can compete against other kids and against Cahill characters to find all 39 clues. Through the website, kids can track their points and clues, manage their card collections, dig through the Cahill archives for secrets, and "travel" the world to collect Cahill artifacts, interview characters, and hunt down clues.
Collecting cards helps: Each card is a piece of evidence containing information on a Cahill, a clue, or a family secret. |
