I have a vague recollection that our library got rid of them. The copies we had were very old, quite worn. I can remember those books, at first thinking that they dated back to medieval times. (Hey, at ten or so, I had no clue about history.) At any rate, when I tried to find them years later, they were costing a fortune to find used, so I haven't reread any for ages.
I was puzzled by the (austere, as I believe) love relationships. I finally did get exasperated because the women never seemed to do much of anything. Even Wendy went to Never Land, though she was a prissy drip. So I read them for that adventure itch, but preferred the Enid Blytons overall. Shows what great taste I had!
