I somehow stumbled on thiswebsite and was wondering if anyone had any experience with any of these series?

I haven't heard of any of them - I have a bit of a weakness for covers with that era by-gone charm.

We have read some of the Beany Malone series and enjoyed them. It has been awhile,my oldest dd was the one who ran across them. I was able to get some through the library system.

God bless,

If I remember right the Beany Malone books have a good bit about dating in them.. I found them when I was hmmm 16 I think, the library had if not all of them a good number of them.. I don't remember how many I read but I know I felt satisfied with the number and with how much I read.. that was hard to do

I was totally hooked on the Sue Barton series in late elementary school. Absolutely wholesome, a touch of beautiful and appropriate romance, good characters with positive (but not saccharine) values.

Peace,
Nancy

Donna,

I just read the first two of the Beany Malone series. I really liked them. It is true that there is quite a bit of dating but very clean and wholesome. Romance is not the main focus of the book but a part in the life of the characters. The two books I read were a very satisfying read for me.

The Beany Malone ones are set in Denver - so I've wanted to read them, but not gotten to that. I'll have to get them for my daughter. I think she would enjoy them from what I have heard - and maybe being local they would have some familiar elements. Those nurse ones sound a lot like the Cherry Ames series which I heard about here on 4 Real - my daughter has really enjoyed those.

I'm with you Donna - I have a weakness for those nostalgic covers .
