Zoe ★★★★★

My 11-year-old actually asked to read the next one in the set, which never happens with school stuff. The citizenship stories opened up real conversations about money and community at our dinner table. Twelve books felt like a lot at first, but we're pacing through them fine.

Carter ★★★★★
