LondonGranddaughter answers:
Two things that grabbed my attention: 

First was the way the WW works differently, e.g. pictures whose 
characters move, chess pieces that act out their parts, staircases that 
realign themselves, etc.  Life was breathed into otherwise lifeless 
items, expanding my own world of imagination.

Second was her use of Latin and her descritive labels in naming people 
and things.  I appreciated the planning that went into the names, 
enjoyed figuring out the meanings and then forecasting how those poeple 
and things would play out their descriptions.

I also appreciated the clean, simple, kid lives they lived. If it had 
been issue oriented, or if the kids had lived like adults (as they 
often do in TV and movies) I would never have finished the first book.

Thankful that I got to read the first 3 books without waiting,
