These were great! I've read "Across the Wide and Lonesome Prairie" (Oregon Trail); "The Winter of Red Snow" (American Revolution); "Journey to a New World" (Pilgrims); and one set on board the Titanic. "Red Snow" is probably my favorite. Pity you can't get them out here except through the Internet.
... am I the only one who loved these? I remember the days when it was just Felicity, Kirsten, Samantha and Molly, and Addy was the "newest" one - now I have no idea how many there are.

CS Lewis will always be one of my absolute favorite authors. He has this ability to make religion invigorating and challenging, using analogies to help express concepts that can be hard to understand but never seeking to come across as "holier than thou". I'm a Christian myself, so I loved...
