This review is from: Zack Files 24: My Grandma, Major League Slugger (Paperback)

I love these books. I read them to my 6 year old daughter and she loves them. They hold both of our interest and are quite entertaining. They are imaginative and funny. I have given them as gifts to other children and all of their parents said they loved them. I have not disliked a single one. I highly recommend any of these books. Older children would enjoy them as well.
