Lauren | 5 comments When I was younger, I had a set of books about famous historical people. They were white and hardback books with some color illustrations. I enjoyed them a lot and when I asked my mom about them, she said she thinks she ordered them from somewhere and they or the company had the name "club" in them. I specifically remember that they had Lucy Ball, Helen Keller, and my mom remembers Johnny Appleseed.

Any ideas on what the title of this series is? I want to purchase it.

I feel like this has been requested before. I know I've looked at such a series on Amazon as well as here...

Darcy (drokka) | 211 comments I've read them too, and i also recall this being requested before. Let me see if I can find them

ETA: It's The Value Of... series. Value of Sharing: The Story of the Mayo Brothers is the one I remember.

Spencer Johnson seems to have written a few but I think not all of them.

I was wrong it's Value Tales
