DD owns the complete set-- she loves them still for their cleverness and zany narrative qualities.

My DD practically ate those books during April vacation when we took a roadtrip to the desert. We had to download new sets of books at restaurants so she could keep reading during the next leg of the trip (happily, they discounted them if you bought in sets of 3 or 4). Meanwhile, her brothers were busy hyperventilating over iPod Minecraft. Well, at least it kept them from beating each other up.

Don't know how old your DD is, but The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy series is bodacious.
