Can you help to identify a series of children's books, please?

Oh well, better late than never.

I'm just pleased to have the puzzle solved!

I wasn't aware of how extensive the range of subjects was.
This Wikipedia article gives chapter and verse on the series both sides of the Atlantic.

There's a surprising number of copies available on eBay and Amazon at prices of as little as £0.01 to above £30 ($39) so I'll probably buy a couple of copies to remind me of my long lost childhood.
It's a shame that the 'How and Why Wonder Book of Beech Hedge Cutting' was never published. It would have been a godsend this afternoon.

That's easy, take a run down to Wembley and ask the guys with knives.
I say chap, would you show me how you cut the Beeches?
