The books were not favorites of mine, but I know many people everywhere loved them...especially children.

Condolences to her family. :tombstone:

I remember seeing the books all over the library during the summer reading programs as a kid. I was never a fan and usually didn't go for these books, but I imagine they helped a lot of young kids learn to read.
