Ivy & Bean Boxed Set: Books 7- 9

My daughter and I really love this book series. She is 7.5 years old and can read these herself but likes for me to read them to her before bed. They are appropriate for her age, they are funny, and always keep us wanting to know what happens next. Netflix also has a few movies based on the first few books that she has really enjoyed watching after we finish reading the corresponding book.

This is a cute book series about two little girls and their adventures. My first graders loved these books. I love to see books with females as the heroines.

Excellent books for the seven-to-nine year-old child. The main characters are girls (which is hard to find), but better yet, they are normal, interesting children where gender doesn't even matter at all -- as all children's books should be in my opinion. The stories are fun, interesting, filled with mysteries and mess-ups and just the right amount of naughtiness to appeal to most kids. My granddaughter hung on every word! I would say that the reading level for kids who want to read them on their own is around high seven-year-old to eight-year-old.

My daughter loves me to read her Ivy and Bean Books! We purchase the books because she likes to read them again and again. The stories are so fun and silly. I wish this set was available when I was a young reader. I think I would have enjoyed reading more than I did. I am happy to see my daughter so enthusiastic about reading. It is such a joy.

My beautiful little grandaughter was absolutely thrilled to have these books to read. She's at the age were she can read enough right now.

My 6 year old has never sat through a book. She gets bored and walks away. Always has since she was little. That is until she was introduced to Bean and Ivy. She was given the 1st set of book 1,2, and 3 and she was hooked! Once we finished those. We bought the next 2 sets with books, 4,5, & 6 and 7,8, & 9. They are great, funny and keeps her engaged. I recommend these books.

This series has potential. The story develops a little slowly, but by the end, we are engrossed and definitely hooked. The ending is shocking and certainly makes the viewer believe there is a story to follow. The acting is a bit choppy..there are moments when the words coming out ot the actors mouths just don't ring true, but there is plenty of action and the staging and production are first rate. I'm ready for more......

I absolutely love this series. I read a few chapters to my 5-year-old every night before bed, and she is always begging for more. Annie Barrows is so great at thinking like a kid, remembering how they genuinely interact with each other and what they're interested in. It's also nice that the kids stay the same age throughout the series. In the Ramona Quimby books, for example, Ramona is a year older in each book, so they can get beyond your child's level a little in terms of content, which is too bad if she starts off loving them and wants to read them all.

My 6 year olds loves it

These are best books ever as per my daughter, age 8. She read all 12 of them. It took her a day to go through each book and she thinks they are hilarious.

What a great collection! Fun and entertaing. my 7 years old loves reading the books and playing with the stickers and cut out that come with the collection. We can’t wait for book 11 to come out in paperback!

Tres jolie edition, dans une belle boite, avec les poupées en cartons pour jouer. Les livres parfaits pour les filles de 7-9 ans, en anglais.

My six year old niece absolutely LOVES these stories! She has already sped through 9 books and I get a kick out of watching her read; she giggles out loud and then wants to tell me all the funny situations that the two little girls in the book get into. I was so happy by her response that I borrowed the first three book off her shelf for myself. Now, I'm giggling out loud while I read. Thanks, Annie Barrow, for knowing just how to connect to and inspire little girls, even the one tucked away in some of the grown ones.
