Dash has created monsters! My children are drawn to collection of books and movies because of Dash! Cman watched a movie last night and said "but it's just the first one." He didn't think of there not being a sequel! Cman's reading is improving and we decided to clear out a lot of the "baby" books he has and take him to half price book store to buy some other books that are geared more for the level he's at and growing into.
He was willing to put all his other books back that he had in the cart to get a "collection." It's not a complete collection but out of the first 11 in the Magic School bus chapter books, he has 8 of them now. We still got him a few other books too. We hadn't gone shopping for books at his birthday like we did with N, so this was his special trip! N did pick out a kids almanac for both of them and she's filling her head with useless trivia information as I write! Cman also got a couple Scooby Doo books, he had one in the collection already! I never paid attention to things like that as a kid or an adult. Well, maybe a little as an adult, if I get the first book in a series, if I like it I'll probably get the rest in that series! :) Dash has effected us all!

He's missing book 5, 7, and 10 out of the first 11 in the Magic School Bus series. NOT that I pay attention to numbers at all! :)
Any more it isn't just Dash's influence. There is hardly such a thing as a movie or a book without a sequel.
I like a series but I tend not to read them one after another as an adult the way I did as a child. I take a break and go back to it later.
Sometimes it is nice to read a series of books. I haven't done it in awhile!
NJ will enjoy C-man's old books.
