Yes. Gaplet the 9yo is going through the Hardy Boys stuff now and seems to like it.

ETA: I have not checked, but presume that he's not reading the actual ancient Hardy Boys manuscripts that you and I read back in the day, but instead more modern editions generated by an algorithm housed in a Google data center somewhere in Oregon.
