Welcome to a special week here at Reading Freely, in which I’m going to be revisiting some of the books I was reading as a youngun’, with a special emphasis on series that were written during the nineties themselves. Each day will feature a different series, from which I’ve reread some books in the last couple of months. If you didn’t have the good fortune to be a kid in the nineties, this week’s postings may be wack or even lame but for readers my age, or for those who were otherwise exposed to these series (or shared them with your own mini-me’s), hopefully this will be a fun ‘blast to the past’. So…stick a straw in your CapriSun, grab your Fruit by the Foot, take off your sticky candy ring, and settle in for some reading that’s all that and a bag of chips. Feel free to share your own fun kid reads, especially those that were da bomb dot com.

As posts roll out this well, they’ll be featured above. In the meantime, take a look at reviews / look-backs from a few other books I read as a wee bairn.

The Indian in the Cupboard
Where the Red Fern Grows
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
The Little House on the Prairie
