I remember how difficult it was to find great books for kids once they’ve moved to chapter books but are not quite ready for Newbery books.

Best Old Fashioned Families in Children’s Books
I do love those old fashioned books; you know, the ones where no one fights at all EVER. Siblings get along beautifully, parents never get divorced, and there’s always a happy ending. In fact, there is so little conflict, there isn’t much plot. It’s more like a series of short vignettes of what life was like back then. Was life that simple and conflict free back then? I doubt it, but I do love reading about it with my kids.
