What I'd really like to know is how many people started reading with these at school???? In hindsight I find it ironic we were using these repetitive & simple books and at the same time being taught to write copperplate with nibs and ink.
I wish I could find an original cover picture which was a green cover, but have found an inside page illustration and another of the series original covers "Look and See". (click under the image - 2 more photos) to see them.

You can see most of the covers for the Dick and Jane series here;

It's a shame my copies were thrown out a few years back. ;( Going by the prices on the above site, they are worth collecting.
