Is anyone looking to get rid of these? My DS7 needs to read 20 minutes per night for homework - -he reads one of these books in that time. I can't afford to keep up with him. I've looked at the local library. They don't have the complete series. They will do an inter-library loan but at the rate he is going through them, they wouldn't be able to keep up either.
We are especially interested in #7 Sabertooth.
THanks for your help.

I know we had that book at one time. Let me look for it. May have a few more still laying around.

I have a bunch of them I kept from teaching- I can look at my books and send them to you once I find them- they are probably random numbers not all of them in a row. I may want them back at some point but it would be in a couple of years probably.

Only found the Pirates Past Noon research guide???? Not sure why we have it. I also found some random Captain Underpants books. You can have the Pirates if you want it or the CU. Just send me a pm with your addy. I won't want them back.
It says in the front it is Jack and Annie's very ownguide to Pirates.

Magic Tree House books were my favorite!!! Have you noticed that if you do Spaceship Earth at EPCOT that everything in the Earth has been covered in a Magic Tree House Book? My girls kept pointing at things "I remember when Jack and Annie were with the ____________(fill in the blank)"
We don't have them anymore but I can also recommend A to Z and Secrets of Droon Series by Tony Abbot.

My DD loves Judy Moody! I will look into Stink for DS. I know the library has them. We have the entire Wimpy Kid series. He read the first book, but then moved onto the magic tree house. A lot of the early books are about things he loves..dinosaurs, mummies, knights, ancient animals...really good topics to get them hooked.
Thanks for the info about the other series. I will look for them too. I am very excited about his love of reading.

I really liked the Magic Tree House books when I was a kid - another thing you might want to check out is the Time Warp Trio. It's another one of those "not knowing you're learning but you kind of are" books - not as good as the MTH in terms of educational aspects, but I think they're more entertaining.

I will have to look around... are there any other books he is interested in. I love Captn Underpants too and the ABC Mysteries are a big hit too!
