Now I'll have to check out the library for a copy just to reminisce. Nice review, Rebecca!<br /><br /><a title="My Writer's Blog" href="http://mlswift.me/blog" rel="nofollow">M.L.

I like making up my own answers, which can be a lot more complex than can be put in a children's book :)<br /><br />Julie--I haven't read very many of the series, but the first 18 were actually written by Warner, and after that they become a corporate entity, much like the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew (and Bobbsey Twins, for that matter). My sister-in-law told me not to bother reading beyond those first 18, but I found even the first couple of sequels lost the magic.Rebecca M.

I love the original books and my six year old is starting to read them now. I might have to check this one out because I'm pretty sure that he would love it.
