Mrs. Frisby and the Rats fo Nihm

Very entertaining, good read

First book is good. Then, the magic gets a bit creepy in book two and on

Matilda

Funny, cute story.

Twenty-One Balloons

Based on a true event; kept kids interest

James and the Giant Peach

Cute book for early middle schoolers

The Phantom Tollbooth

High Educational value. Not a strong story line but cute scenes throughout

Chronicles of Prydain

Good fantasy series. Not Christian but definitely good vs evil and good wins. Not educational other than vocab.

All of a Kind Family Series

Jewish family but moral. Education high because you learn about the Jewish holidays and the turn of the century.

Thimble Summer

Not much spiritual growth here but no deterrents either. High in education value and my daughter gave it a 4 which is high praise from her.
