    One of our favorites was The All Of A Kind Family by Sydney Taylor. I love them as an adult!

    I loved the Boxcar Children. But my favorite was the Nancy Drew stories. Every time I would finish one, my mom would buy me the next one. I remember they were numbered too.

    I was a third grade teacher and always read Boxcar Children to my class. Later it was adopted as the book for the children to read during reading group time.

    I also read Charlotte's Web aloud each year.
