Big Nate Rocks!
Great series of books that I enjoy as much as my daughter! Silly plots and characters, but feels very authentic with its kid p.o.v. The illustrations are great and add a humorous dimension as well. There are coded messages that appear in the illustrations for extra fun. One doesn't have to stop reading to solve them, they're just kind of a bonus feature. A nice length for some sustained reading sessions with only mildly challenging vocabulary makes these great for reading practice. Lots of dialogue for young readers to practice inflection, etc., too. Good, clean fun, engaging story lines, and great practice for young readers.

Loved by all
I bought two sets. One set for my boys, 7 and 8 years old, and another for the elementary school library where I work a couple of days a week. All the kids in school beg me for these books. I was quite the hero bringing these to school. I apparently didn’t bring enough, though! LOL My boys live Big Nate so much they read them more than a few times each. Perfect for boys and girls ages 6 to 96.

Books my son can read, and his mother is actually ok with them!
My 2nd grader loves to read, and he loves comedy, but it's hard to find some that aren't incredibly disrespectful to adults.I had previously purchased some of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid for him, but was appalled at how SO MANY of the stories depicted adults as shallow uncaring individuals who knew less than nothing. The kid knew it all and the adults were just mistaken. I know it's not meant to be taken seriously, and they're quite funny, but at such a young age, children can be very impressionable. It's different when they're older and can filter a little better.So, being for a young 2nd grader, I like this Big Nate series much better than the other books, simply because it's focused on interactions with other children versus so much with adults. The funny stuff is usually some happenstance that Nate gets himself into, rather than ugly humor directed at other people. I'm not saying it doesn't have ANY, but it's much more preferable than the alternatives. I'm a much happier mother to find these that he likes just as much!

Great quality for great price!
My son ordered 2 sets to donate in memory of his teacher who passed away from cancer this year. She gave him a Big Nate book for Christmas. He was so excited to donate these to two libraries in her memory!

so I was really happy to find this box set
My nephew really likes the Big Nate books, but only owns 3 of them, so I was really happy to find this box set, so I could send them to him, for his birthday this year. I know he will be thrilled. I was also glad to see that they have other ones on here, as well, so I can continue to purchase them, until he owns all of the titles.

Why I rated this 5 stars
This is a very good book it has three books in it it’s funny and at some points you just don’t want to stop reading it because you want to know what happens next

My son is going to love these books!!
Perfect book set for my 7 year old son! He's going to love these books!! I also am unsure where to write a review about the Amazon delivery guy, but I have to say HE WAS THE BEST!! The office was closed at my apartment building so he took the extra effort to call me and walk my order over to me!! He was VERY sweet!! I hope he has a wonderful holiday!

So far so good!
We read the whole Diary of a Wimpy Kid series and needed a new one. These are seeming to be just as entertaining! Still on the first book though!
