I don't know Estes or Enright, but Edward Eager was my jam. Him and E. Nesbit. Also E.W. Hildick. And Allan W. Eckert. So I also liked E's, it seems.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I should track down the Enright stuff and see if it bears up. My middle school library had a big 3-volume omnibus of the Melendy books, and I regularly checked it out. That and teh volumes of the encyclopedia, thick enough to keep me occupied for more than a day or two.

What about Edward Eager? Half-Magic, Seven-Day Magic, Knight's Castle, and so on.
oooh, definitely! I loved the Melendy books, but I think they're too old for that age.
