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.

For some reason, I never think of the Narnia book as a "series", because in my head series had amorphous, unknown numbers of books, and occasionally, like magic, a new one would appear on the library shelves. Whereas the Narnia books were done by the time I got to them, with a quite concrete and knowable number, all packaged in one box on my brother's shelf.

Hmmm, I would call a non-finite series a "serial"; a series is simply more than four books. But as far as serials go, E. Nesbit probably wouldn't qualify either.
