I'm showing my age, but I totally loved that series too.
I also loved Encyclopedia Brown.

I love Animorphs, Dear America, The Royal Diaries, Thoroughbred, California Diaries, Harry Potter (I stopped at book 5; later finished the rest). There were other books I enjoyed too since I loved to read. I’ll look them up later and post again.
As a kid, I liked Brown Bear Brown Bear, My father’s dragon trilogy, Rainbow Fish, and some others (I’ll add on when I think of them).
I loved books that were written like diaries & journals and historical fiction until I got more invested in history since then historical accuracy and stuff began to bother me.

Loved A Series of Unfortunate Events, Magic Tree House, Geronimo Stilton, Goosebumps, and Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Thinking about them makes me nostalgic for Scholastic Book Fairs and going straight to the back of Barnes and Noble stores where are all the children's books were and looking for hours after school 
Geronimo Stilton, I Spy, and the Choose Your Own Adventure books are my favorite childhood book series. I also like the old fairy tale books that featured the original versions of fairy tales. (The choose your own adventure books are older than me lol)
The Choose Your Own Adventure books are extremely innovative for the writing medium in general and way ahead of its time, and this book is basically the book version of text-based adventure games and visual novels.

I am an AVID reader!!!
As a small child I luved Dr. Seuss, especially fox and socks, go dog go, and the grinch and little golden books. My fav book as a child was monster at the end of this book starring Grover from Sesame Street. I still own a ton of my little golden books and dr Seuss books. As a young child, I LUVED the Serendipity books by Stephen Cosgrove and they were beautifully illustrated by Robin James.
I was obsessed with Mz James’s illustration style. She is the reason I started drawing.
When I got a little older, I owned over 150 babysitters club books. My dad introduced me to S.E. Hinton after watching The Outsiders and I read all of those as well. Because I was such an avid reader, my reading tastes were quite a bit more advanced the older I got and by the time I started to hit adolescence, (at age 10-12) i was reading Stephen king and VC Andrew’s and out of the young reader books mostly.
Even though I wasn’t a child when the Harry Potter series and hunger games series came out, I would def put them WAY up there in greatest young reader book series’s!

I liked the Cat Club series(13 books written between 1944 and 1972) by Esther Averill.These books were about the adventures of a group of cats led by a black cat named Jenny Linsky.I also liked the Henry Huggins and The Mouse and the Motorcycle series by Beverly Cleary.

Magic Treehouse and The Babysitter's Club were my favourite series as a kid, and then I eventually moved on to Harry Potter during the pandemic. I also really liked Geronimo Stilton, Upside-Down Magic, Captain Underpants, and Dog Man. Most of those have since been passed down to my younger brother. I still have my Kindle from like 2018 that's mostly just Babysitter's Club books.

IT'S TV TIME!

Ghost Of Autumn
Quit lurking, dude
That would have to be the "most challenged book series of the 1990s"...
Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark
Ginny Potter
💜Pikachu and Harry Potter💜
I created a Harry Potter thread if u wanna join the discussion
Post automatically merged:
I grew up reading Nancy Drew, the Chronicles of Narnia, and when I was in high school it was Twilight. I am a huge Harry Potter fan. I got the whole series. Even all the Twilight series. I'm trying to finish collecting the Chronicles of Narnia. I remember enjoying the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
i wasn’t much of a reader but i really loved the flat stanley books and then the diary of a wimpy kid when i was a bit older.
i read flat stanley in second grade and i remember we had an assignment where we had to print out our own flat stanleys and then mail them to a relative who lived in another state. they had to take pictures of it in exciting places, i sent mine to my aunt who lives on the west coast. she went to a beach and took a picture of my flat stanley with a bunch of random sufer dudes

I didn't actually read a lot as a kid despite loving it, since I didn't really have easy access when I was younger, but there were a few in the school library I read and still love to this day
There was this one series of books about vampires, zombies, and other "horror" creatures written in Irish that I loved, but honestly can't remember the name. I used to read them over the summer when I was 7/8 years old
Children of the Famine was a really good series. The premise is around these three children who have lost both parents during the Great Famine and their lives thereafter. Under The Hawthorn was definitely my favourite book from the trilogy, I read the whole thing in one go on my sitting room floor and when I finished I couldn't stand up because my legs were gone to jelly. 100% worth it
I suppose you could say the Chronicles of Narnia, but I only ever read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe so I don't know that it counts. Love that book though, C. S. Lewis is a really good author (my shock when I found out he wrote books on theology/philosophy and not just fantasy series lmao, I remember in 1st year I was so confused)
Percy Jackson and the Olympians is one of my favourite series too. Got it for Christmas when I was 12, stayed up late for so many nights just to finish it, had the whole thing done before the new year. Then I read it again, and again. Found online versions of the rest of the series and adored them too. Kinda hate the other connected series though I won't lie, I pretend they don't exist most of the time
And last but certainly not least, Artemis Fowl. Got this at the same time as PJO so I didn't get around to reading it until a few months later, but it's probably my favourite series to this day. I haven't read all the books yet because I can't be spending that much money but I want to own physical copies so it's been slow. I'm planning on rereading the books I've read and then starting on the ones I've yet to, but I have Christmas exams and then I'm hoping to have driving lessons so it'll probably have to wait until summer holidays

Magic Treehouse, Junie B. Jones, Boxcar Children, Amelia Bedelia, Harry Potter, Nancy Drew (OK they’re not just for kids, but you know….), Ramona Quimby, Amber Brown, American Girl (the ones about the dolls), Goosebumps, Babysitters’ Club, and Judy Blume books (not a series, but you know).
OH, and those big DK books about various topics. (Horses, knights, etc.) They had a lot of cool photos.
