Books for little girls

<< < (11/12) > >>

Hoopz:
I'll also throw out the Alvin Fernald series.  Another genius who gets into adventures.

And when she gets a little older (to 8 or so, maybe?), the Trixie Belden series.  Set in the 50s.  I thought they were better than the Nancy Drew novels.  I bought a couple for my oldest daughter for Christmas.

knave:
WOW, I loved the brain books...funny though now that you mention the era I never really noticed when I was reading the books...but I remember things like them getting the sears cataloge so I guess it was set back-in-the-day.

shmokes:
Speaking of geniuses, we've read a couple Artemis Fowl books and they've been pretty good. Those ones have an interesting twist in that the main character isn't just a genius kid. He's a genius criminal mastermind kid.

eds1275:
Stuart Little was a favourite of my niece when she was younger, and before that my nephews. I also have fond memories of the Borrowers.

shmokes:
Borrowers is a great idea. She adores the movie. She actually leaves food out for them that I have to dump so that she'll think they got it.
