They're releasing The Baby-Sitters Club series for ebooks on December 1st!!!!!!!! XMAS WISH LIST!!!!!!
What are other favorite childhood books do you wish they would release as ebooks? Next on my list would probably be the Nancy Drew series.
-
Good times! My next favorite series after BSC was Sweet Valley Twins. And then Sleepover Friends.
-
Sweet Valley High for sure! Little House on the Prairie if they're not out already? I've honestly never looked for my childhood favorites on my Kindle.
Does anyone remember a series of books where the main character (usually a girl) dies from an illness--they were so dramatic and I remember loving them. I don't mean to sound so morbid.
-
No way! The whole series?! That is amazing!
-
@tororojo: Omg, Sleepover Friends! I thought i was the only one. hahaha...
-
@caffeinated: Sleepover Friends were amazing! When you're bored sometime, read the commentary on this site: http://thedairiburger.com/ ...she also does BSC, Sweet Valley and other teenybopper stuff. Pretty funny!
-
@tororojo: Oh man, thanks! I'm going to enjoy reading this.
-
@keiki_mama: Was it the Six Months to Live / Dawn Rochelle series?
-
I also enjoyed The Saddle Club when I was younger. I liked horses.
-
SCORE! =) I donated mine to a school library years ago. I secretly wish I kept them all.
-
@PearlBee: It very well could have been! Thank you for giving me a name to the books!

@keiki_mama: I know it's morbid. I remember reading that series when I was younger though. I think I found the original one at a book fair and kinda got hooked. I think there's something to be said for that particular series, at least, in that it teaches younger kids about the realities of death in a narrative fashion. This series is about a girl with leukemia, and my own (extended) family has faced far more than our fair share of cancer, so while they are maybe not light reading, I can see how they help you understand the concept of death in a way? Gosh I sound so cheery.
