Childhood nostalgia poll

Please reminisce, fondly or not, about any of these, or other books read in childhood, especially if they seem to have, deservedly or undeservedly, vanished from the shelves. I'd love to hear about non-US, non-British books, too.

McGurk Mysteries! I am so glad Rachel posted this, simply because I know what they're called now.

I did always like the way the mysteries solved in the McGurk books were mostly, well, genuinely child-scale mysteries--without seeming boring or stupid.
