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.

    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!

    The Nick and Sam series is so well written – that is certainly not a given in today’s children’s literature! The Catholic faith is integrated into the lives of the children, and thus the stories, very naturally and beautifully. Due to the humanity and ease of the adventures, the reader is sucked in and the faith learning is never overbearing, always more show than tell and very age appropriate. My seven-year-old has read and reread these books numerous times over the past two years and finds them to be very relatable and enjoyable. As a parent, I look forward to future Nick and Sam stories and also to the companion series for older kids when the kids are ready for it. I recommend these to my friends for their kids too!
