My daughter loves these books. For those with kids wondering about age/suitability: she's seven, she reads it by herself, and she understands what's going on in the story but needs help with some of the words. I think it's pretty spot on for her: challenging enough to improve her reading but easy enough that she's not frustrated when an uncommon word pops up (for her age she does have an above average reading level). So I'd suggest 7 - 9 years old for these books.
She read this one first and loved it so much that I bought her the entire series (found it very very cheap). She has since read the first three books and is into book 4. She loves the characters (I think George is her favorite) and the adventures. This series has done a fantastic job of introducing her into the joys of reading!
And for that reason I'm giving it 5 stars.
