We need to add to our library list!<br />I'm hoping that my children will love to read as much as I do. It's one of my 5th grader's passions, and I'm hoping the boys follow suit.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03399663278970048427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4412423340656879377.post-5552290487661432722010-11-17T21:53:48.655-05:002010-11-17T21:53:48.655-05:00Oh, these are some of my favorites, with a few new...Oh, these are some of my favorites, with a few new to me titles in there! I love getting reliable recommendations to share with my children. I'm trying so hard help my children develop an appetite for reading.chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16320267523897987719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4412423340656879377.post-14479526236235185572010-11-17T08:54:30.936-05:002010-11-17T08:54:30.936-05:00MBS is definitely for boys and girls.

The Penderwicks has four strong girl characters...the first book has a really nice boy as a main character too, but I don't remember a main character in the second book that was a boy, though there were neighborhood boys as secondary characters.<br /><br />So...The Penderwicks may work for some boys but not for others. :)Annette W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02498639468291720406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4412423340656879377.post-48246434266541332312010-11-17T07:14:01.338-05:002010-11-17T07:14:01.338-05:00I have never heard of Mysterious Benedict Society ...I have never heard of Mysterious Benedict Society or The Penderwicks. Would you recommend them for both boys and girls, or just one specific gender? (I'm considering them for my older children and wondered what your opinion was.)Doriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03179813434836257858noreply@blogger.com
