Awesome

The Sting of the Scorpion by Franklin W. Dixon is a great example of a Hardy Boy book. It is about a new dirigible that is being sabotaged. Also an animal park owner is being pressured to sell out. Can the Hardy boys stop the evil Scorpio gang in time? Franklin W. Dixon writes nothing but mystery stories. People who like suspence would love this book. I give this book 5 stars.

One Blast of a Mystery!!!... by David House

One blast of a mystery! I can't beleive that other reveiwers don't like this book at all!(maybe they're mystery haters...no offense.) The Sorpion Sting is about when the Hardy Boys find the Safari Queen drop two things out of the sky. A small object that exploded, and a elephent that also explodes. The Hardys go an investigate and can't because of the gaurd's orders not to let them in. The Hardy Boys later find themselves scrambling in another mystery. The rest I have no time to tell because I going to Sandiego to compete in a Teakwondo(karate)tournament in an hour. Make sure you this book carefully.(if you haven't)

A great book to end the Hardy Boys mystery stories!

When I looked on the computer about "The Sting of the scorpion" I thought it was a bad book to read but when I read it I went on the computer and rated it. The book IS a great book to end the Hardy Boys mysteries.

This mystery book is better for pre-teens than teenagers.

This book was called The Sting of the Scorpion by Franklin W. Dixon. It is one of the many books in the once popular Hardy Boys series. This book is mainly a mystery about a zoo that has problems because two businessmen try to buy it off of the owner, Pop Warner. It also focuses on blimps and the new interest in them. The Hardy Boys, like the amateur detectives that they are, attempt to figure out who the man is that tries to scare Pop Warner away. The case gets even more interesting when the Scorpion gang tries to stop the Hardys! This book takes place in a city near New York City some 10 to 20 years ago, but the setting doesn't really matter. It is the actual book that is the main focus of the readers. I don't really recommend this book to anyone because it wasn't really that good. It was probably fourth grade level, so I suggest it to fourth graders. I also suggest it to British children because this book seems to be a British type of novel. The reasons I liked this book were that it was short, had a decent plot, and had some action. The reasons I disliked the book were the fact that no one ever gets hurt even though there is a gang involved, it had very little action, and it was just too far below my reading level.
