List of Wishbone books

The Wishbone Classics series features straightforward adaptations of the original stories that inspired episodes of the show, albeit with humorous commentary from Wishbone inserted in sidebars. ==The Adventures of Wishbone==

The Adventures of Wishbone follows the structure of the TV series, switching back and forth between Oakdale and a story of which Wishbone has been reminded. Several are novelizations of television episodes, while others adapt stories not featured in the TV series. The Super Adventures of Wishbone The Super Adventures of Wishbone consists of five double-length books in the style of The Adventures of Wishbone. ==The Wishbone Mysteries==

The Wishbone Mysteries books depart from the structure of the TV series, no longer including Wishbone imagining himself into a story, but exclusively following Wishbone and his human friends in Oakdale. In each book, Joe, Sam, or David reads a novel or short story (usually, but not always, a mystery), with the events of that story inspiring them as they solve a mystery in the present day. In the second book, Joe discovers a box of his late father's favorite mystery stories in their attic, which supplies many of the books he reads throughout the series. The Wishbone Super Mysteries Similar to The Super Adventures, The Wishbone Super Mysteries consists of four double-length books in the style of The Wishbone Mysteries. ==Wishbone: The Early Years==

Wishbone: The Early Years is aimed at much younger readers than the other series, and as such are much shorter. The books share the structure of the TV series and The Adventures of Wishbone, but are set several years prior to the TV series, featuring a younger Joe and Wishbone as a puppy. All six are based on folktales or myths and are named directly for the story they adapt. ==2000–2001==

From 2000 to 2001, new series were launched, all credited to author A. D. Francis: Wishbone Adventures (replacing The Adventures of Wishbone), Wishbone Mysteries (replacing The Wishbone Mysteries) and Wishbone: Tales of a Pup (replacing Wishbone: The Early Years). A total of nine books were published before all of the series were canceled. Wishbone Adventures Wishbone Mysteries Wishbone: Tales of a Pup Unlike The Early Years, the Tales of a Pup books were not directly titled for their source material, and two of the five were not based on folktales but rather a short story and a novel. ==References==
