This extensive series makes a colorful splash on our shelves - catching the eye of anyone who walks in. Students are drawn by both the visuals and the exciting events experienced by Christians like themselves. A particularly great feature of this series is the way it gives both parents and children a point of conversation - both reading and enjoying the same book- excellent for family bonding and 0f course - building better reading skills. And cliff hanger endings leave the reader hardly able to wait the for the next installment...music to a librarian's ears. We have a limited selection of books that might interest a middle-schooler so this is a very popular series. This series does raise a few difficulties, though, that are addressed in the audio post. </div>Winifrednoreply@blogger.com
