Like many parents, I have a love/hate relationship with Scholastic. On the one hand, you can get plenty of good books cheaply, like a set of three from the Junie B. Jones series for $4.95. And I love the I Spy series of picture riddles that—I tell myself—are worthy of the hours my son spends poring over them in books and CD-ROMs.
On the other hand, the company sells tons of junk, too. I’ve spent several hundred bucks on still-unread books from the Scooby-Doo! and You Mystery Club (they show up too quickly every month for any normal, stressed-out family to read—and they’re not very good).
