Nicolas (Nick) and Samantha (Sam) Perry are twins in the Perry family. They moved with their parents, their brother Andrew, and their sister Lizzy, to Hope Springs in the summer. Hope Springs is a fictional town in the mountains of Colorado. This series presents the adventures of the twins, their family, their friends, and the people they encounter at school, church, and in town. This series presents Catholic culture easily and normally, and provides opportunities for readers to think about the consequences of words and actions. Some of the chapters early in the series appear in the Signs of Grace curriculum, and the Hope Springs "universe" expands out to McCusker's Blue Christmas and will be featured in other stories to come. This series is written similarly to the Adventures in Odyssey series and the Magic Tree House series, and is recommended for readers ages seven and up, but can also be read by parents to younger children.

I Loved the books of the series "The adventures of Nick and Sam. I haven't heard anything back from my grandchildren and hope they will think the same once they read them.

My 3rd grader has not stopped reading since she picked the first book up! She is reading in her spare time and to her younger siblings. She likes retelling what she has read to the family and is enjoying the stories themselves. I’m so happy to have found a book series that she enjoys and is entertaining, that also espouses the faith and virtues!

This is a great series. We did it as a read aloud at bedtime. One chapter was never enough! Highly recommend!

My son is a good reader but has had trouble finding chapter books that are interesting without being too difficult or too easy for his level. We read the first couple Nick and Sam books together at bedtime, then he continued with the rest on his own. He pays attention to all the little details and I think he likes them because they are realistic and cover catholic topics he's familiar with. We'll be ordered in the next set soon!
