Choose Your Own Adventure is a series of children's books first published by Bantam Books from 1979 to 1998 and currently published by Chooseco. Each story is written from a second person point-of-view, with the reader assuming the role of the main character. The books have sold 250 million copies, making it one of the most successful book series of all time.

n 1969, in the course of making up bedtime stories for his children, Edward Packard wrote Sugarcane Island, the book that became the prototype for the classic Choose Your Own Adventure series. The William Morris Agency submitted the book on Packard's behalf to several major publishers, all of whom rejected it. In 1976 Packard approached Vermont Crossroads Press, known for its highly creative and innovative children’s books, about publishing the title. R. A. Montgomery, co-founder of VCP, had designed several “you”-based role playing games for the Peace Corps, McGraw-Hill and the Edison Electric Institute in the early 1970’s and immediately saw the potential in the book’s format. He proposed making it into a series, and calling it “The Adventures of You”. Upon publication of Sugarcane Island, Publisher's Weekly called it "an original idea, well carried out."
