Favorite series/author
8:19 PM EDT 5/9/06
During each of the 9 weeks of our summer reading program, we will feature a book series that made a lasting impression on us as children. We'll give a special prize to kids who read a book from that series that week. We'll likely do Beverly Cleary. I'm leaning toward Mrs Piggle-Wiggle and also thinking of trying to get somebody to read the Danny Dunn books.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Ooh, good idea! I only recently read those.

Thanks for coming on over. As you can see, it's pretty quiet here, but maybe we New Mexicans can get it jumping. Please start a topic if you think of one.

In addition to Laura Ingalls Wilder's original "Little House" series, I also quite enjoyed Roger Lea MacBride's "The Rose Years" follow-up series. ("The Caroline Years" didn't quite live up, IMHO.)
