Looks like the price went back up, but keep checking if you want it. camelcamelcamel shows the price has dropped low 3 times in the past two days.

thank you! :)

[SunshineWedding]

thanks so much for posting this, we "heart" Ivy & Bean and this is a great present for the gift closet

[ohiomom1121]

We have the first 3 but this is such a good deal I may have to just order!

[Gracemom]

Great deal! This is the first series of books my DD was addicted to. She just had to read the next one right away!

[iaam]

Thanks for posting - got a set for our nanny's 8 yo DD.

[TwinFoxes]

I can't believe I ordered these...I guess they'll keep for 2-3 years. :) I'm assuming they won't be good for my 3 year old DDS. But that was a great deal, and people seem to love them.

[calv]

THANK YOU! This will be a FABULOUS addition to the Easter basket. :D

[Twoboos]

Thanks OP, DD is reading one of these now and will be excited for the series! :D

[urquie]

Thanks OP! These look perfect for my 7yr old, slightly resistant reader. :)

[Melaine]

Oooh thanks. Never heard of these, but I believe you guys.

[maiaann]

I just placed an order. Honestly, I've never heard of the series, but we love books in this house. I've got a 10 year old who loves to read, but I'm sure she's too advanced for these. She'll probably want to read them anyway. DD2 starts kindergarten next year. I'll hold onto them for her. :)

:ROTFLMAO: I jumped on the bandwagon as well!!!

[shishamo]

Thank you! Just placed an order. This is a wonderful series for early chapter readers!
I'm contemplating getting an another set or two as a gift.

[sewarsh]

Thanks. I just ordered these for my 5.5 YO DD who is really getting into Junie B. June lately and i am just not a fan of JBJ. Is anyone else with me on this? I hope Ivy/Bean are more wholesome and don't use words like stupid, fat, etc.

[wzly]

I just bought 3 as well...A set for my 7 yr old twin girls and 2 for the gift closet...I also am not a JBJ fan, but we have all of the books from my oldest daughter...She was an Ivy & Bean fan...

Many thanks! Jen

DS1 really enjoyed these. I might get them just because he runs out of books so quickly!

Thanks.

[smiles33]

Thanks, I just placed an order for my almost 6 year old.

[elbenn]

I came here to post this deal, but I'm glad it's already been posted. It seems like a great deal!

So your son liked them? Are they good for boys then?

[shoxie]

Thx, OP! I jumped on the bandwagon, as well, for my DD who'll turn 6 in a few days. She's just starting chapter books, so we'll see how these go. Also contemplating buying another set or two to give as gifts. Thx!!

He did like them and picked them out at the library to bring home. But, he's 7 and does not like Star Wars, Magic Tree House, and other typical things. But, he did like them.

[citymama]

Wow, what a DEAL! I just ordered one set for my DD's 6th birthday which is in 2 weeks - great timing! We heart Ivy and Bean and have just one of the books!

Thanks. We'll give it a try!

[jerigirl]

Back up to $59.99 :(

[citymama]

Wow, I was just going back to get another one! That was short lived. Thanks again OP, for the heads up.

Missed it! Please post again if anyone sees it drop :-)

Yes, thanks! I saw that too. My order from this morning has already shipped, but I was going to buy another set for a gift.

I'm so glad a lot of you were able to get it!

[ohiomom1121]

Completely forgot to order....so sad!

[cicada]

We've read the first three from the library, and my son (almost 6) also likes them. He like Magic Tree House as well, but doesn't generally like more stereotypical boy things.

Got my order today. The box sleeve holding the books was torn on the top and the bottom - right at the seam. I didn't notice it until we took all the books out. DH and I gently taped it back together but it's still a bummer. Maybe from the weight of the books + Amazon's poor packaging. Did anybody else get a defective set?

I haven't gotten my set, but I would say that more than 50% of the books I have ordered from Amazon in recent months have been torn, bashed or otherwise defective and most looked like they were shipped that way. I have not been impressed! But you can return it for free and they will send you a replacement.

There have been a few articles recently about the bad conditions and pressure for Amazon warehouse workers.... this is the latest: http://motherjones.com/politics/2012/02/mac-mcclelland-free-online-shipping-warehouses-labor

[abh5e8]

ours came and were perfect...looks like its more of a YMMV problem?

[citymama]

I just wanted to say a big thank you to the OP for this deal. My set arrived today in perfect condition, just in time for a certain 6 yr old's birthday! yay!
