Best Book Series for Children?

My wife and I are doing some pre-spring cleaning. Getting rid of stuff that hasn't seen the light of day in years. Came across my favorite books as a young teen, Big Red by Jim Kjelgaard. There was a series of these books, all about Irish Setters and living off the land and such. I bought the complete series for my oldest son when he turned 12 (he's 21 now).
Another good, wholesome series is the Little House on the Prairie. Both girls and boys can enjoy them, adults, too.
I think that enjoying a good book as a teenager is becoming a lost thing. Too much technology at our figure tips. Case in point: Who here has a current set of encyclopedias? Our set is from 2001. I can't tell you the last time I pulled one off the shelf. No more researching... its just "look it up on your phone."
So what other book series are in our homes?
