My grandson recently told me about the 39 Clues books. I'd never heard of them and asked him if they were mystery books.
I know he loves reading Encyclopedia Brown books and other who-dunits.
He said it wasn't really a mystery but a brother and sister whose grandmother leaves them a million dollars or a clue in her will. Sounds intriguing! There are 10 books in all.
After researching these books, I think I'll have to read them! On Amazon, the first book, The Haze of Bones, shown here, has a 4.3-star rating out of 5 stars. Comments all remark on how they can't wait to start the next book.

The same title of book can have many listings on Amazon. You noticed above in the "Gone with the Wind" listing that Amazon lists books by New, Hardcover, Paperback, Mass Market Paperback, Kindle, and Audible versions.
Find the exact or closest to the exact copy of the book you have for sale. People are particular. Often they know what they want and they will be upset if they order a hardcover book and you listed your paperback by the same title in with the hardbacks. They'll usually demand a refund and you want to keep those problems to a minimum.
With the many versions of the same book for sale on Amazon, it's important to match your book with Amazon's listings. Use your book's ISBN if it has one to search for your book in Amazon's listings. Some older books don't have an ISBN but newer books always do. For more information on ISBNs, click here.
If you can't locate your exact book for whatever reason but lots of similar books with the same title are listed, choose the listing that is closest to yours. The publication date may be off by a year, for example. This is usually not a deal breaker, but be sure to list in the description that your book is similar but with "this year, instead of that year."
Also be sure to use the description area to describe any damage or labels or writing in your copy of the book for sale. Rate it correctly (New, Used-Like New, Used-Very Good, Used-Good, Used-Acceptable) or you may be sorry.
