The Stories

Despite having read all of the T3I books in the original series several times, I still enjoy going back and reading them again and reliving the adventures of the boys. Below are links to information on each of the stories. For each story, the author and illustrator(s) are identified, followed by a short synopsis. On a few stories, I've included a few tidbits that may or may not be apparent from reading the story the first time. At any rate, I hope you'll find them to be a fun addition to the usual listing of the books. In addition, I have begun to post the internal illustrations for both the US and UK versions of the stories. This is a great way to see how the various artists have interpreted the writing and narration of the story.

In addition to story synopses, the internal illustrations for all the stories that had them in the United States have been posted. Just click on the link for the story and take a look at the artwork!

Enough of introductions. On with the stories!
