        I loved those and the Bobbsey Twins books, as well ad the Nancy Drew 
series.

        There was an item in the news a long time ago about a woman who was 
locked in a car trunk (I think she'd been kidnapped but maybe it was accidental 
and she escaped because of what she'd read when Nancy Drew was in a similar 
situation and show she got  out

          Isn't that the truth? I am adding them for the next generation, but 
truthfully, I am enjoying them as much as I did as a young girl myself. I had a 
voracious appetite for reading, and the Cherry Ames books in particular were a 
favorite. I think I read virtually all of the Nancy Drew books, as well as a 
good chunk of the Hardy boys, and then I moved on to Agatha Christie. I read 
very little these days, so the pleasure of reading childhood favorites and 
adding to the collection so others might enjoy has been a really nice reprieve 
from my normal daily duties.

          By the way, I use speech recognition software and I am a beta tester 
on the Mac side as well as a user on the PC side, so if you ever see funky 
words that don't make sense, it means I did a terrible job of proofreading my 
own e-mail. Unfortunately I usually miss at least one in every message, that's 
the problem when it gets so good that you barely check what was typed. Smiles

          Happy reading everyone!
