Getting my son to read is worse than pulling teeth, however, when we picked up this series, he won't put the book down till he's finished! The books have about 25-30 small chapters, which makes it easy to read for those small attention spans. And his sense of pride and accomplishment is evident with the fact that HE read a 30 chapter book! I definatly recommend all of these books.

If your kids haven't started reading Edgar and Ellen yet, they will. This is my favorite of a fun series. Every book seems to get better and better. This book features most of the classic elements of the series: The wacky characters, the riddles, the snarky dialog, and of course the pranks. I am so glad my God sisters found these books, not just because she loved them but also because I loved reading them with her.

I have found this series a wonderful series for kids, especially those from 8-12 years old. Each of the books are quickly read and have about 25-30 short chapters that keeps the pace moving right along. In Nod's Limbs it's a race against the Knightleigh family to solve riddles to the location of the treasure of the town, Nod's golden limbs. It's exciting fun all in footie pajamas.
