Here is information from the The 39 Clues website about the series:

• The 39 Clues™ is an interactive and multi-platform adventure series combining books, collectible cards, and an online game where readers become a part of the story. The groundbreaking series is the first of its kind in the publishing industry.
• The 39 Clues series centers around the Cahills—the most powerful family the world has ever known. But the source of the family's power has been lost. Grace Cahill, the last matriarch of the Cahills, changed her will minutes before she died, leaving her descendants an impossible decision: receive a million dollars or a clue. The first Cahill to assemble all 39 clues hidden around the world will discover what makes the family so powerful—a reward beyond measure. It's Cahill versus Cahill in a race to the finish, with readers hot on the heels of the main characters, fourteen-year-old Amy Cahill and her eleven-year-old brother, Dan.
• The series highlights famous historical figures and geographical locations around the globe kicking off with Benjamin Franklin (Paris, France) in Book 1: The Maze of Bones, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Vienna, Austria) in Book 2: One False Note, Toyotomi Hideyoshi (Tokyo, Japan) in Book 3: The Sword Thief, Howard Carter (Cairo, Egypt) in Book 4: Beyond the Grave, Anastasia Romanov (St. Petersburg, Russia) in Book 5: The Black Circle, Amelia Earhart (Australia) in Book 6: In Too Deep, Shaka Zulu (Pretoria, South Africa) in Book 7: The Viper’s Nest, Pu Yi (China) in Book 8: The Emperor’s Code, Anne Bonny (Jamaica) in Book 9: Storm Warning, and William Shakespeare (England) in Book 10: Into the Gauntlet.

Winning the 39 Clues boxset would be awesome for my daughter who just developed her love for reading mystery and adventure series. She just finished her 2nd 39 Clues book and said, "whoa... those books are unbelievable." She would be thrilled and grateful to have a whole boxset to read.

My son loves reading. The first series he consumed as he learned to read was the Magic Treehouse series and is working his way through every book he can find. He enjoys math and puzzles and I think this would be a great series for him.

My children love this series and would be overjoyed to receive these. My oldest son doesn't always enjoy reading but these books keep him interested and engaged.

We thoroughly enjoy reading this series and would love to have our own set (we are avid library users). The books we really enjoy reading we try to save up (my 10 year old son and I) to buy the hardbacks to keep and reread.

I would love to win this set for my son. He is interested in these books because they are adventure. Thanks for the chance!

My son will be 12 in January and he used to love reading but has lost interest recently. He says the books at school are boring so I am searching for something to grab his interest. This series would be perfect for us to read together to reignite his love of reading.
