The Alice Series is a Coming of Age book series written by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. There are three prequels to this series. The first one, Starting with Alice, describes Alice in third grade. Alice in Blunder land is Alice in fourth grade; The final prequel, Lovingly Alice, follows Alice through the troubles of fifth grade. The first book (after the prequels) is The Agony of Alice.The Alice series follows the main character, Alice McKinley, known as "Al" to her father and older brother as she grows up in Silver Spring, Maryland. Her mother died of leukemia when Alice was five. Alice has a hard time at first growing up in an all-male household, but her father and her brother, Lester, prove to be honest and open about almost everything Alice talks about. Alice has very little memory of her mother, often confusing her with her aunt, and seems to bear a striking physical resemblance to her, especially her strawberry-blond hair.Other characters include Alice's three best friends, Pamela, Elizabeth and Gwen, her first serious boyfriend, Patrick, her next boyfriend, Sam, her prudish Aunt Sally (who frequently provides a little comic relief), Lester's many girlfriends, and her seventh grade Language Arts teacher, Miss Summers, whom she tries to get her father to marry. The Alice series broaches many topics, including relationships, dating, sex, friendship, life problems, families, God, and understanding.

Missing Child: Alice puts her father through this in Dangerously Alice. She goes out for the evening, but is not home by 11 PM. Unbeknownst to her father, she went to a party with some friends after eating, but a car accident occurs nearby and the police gets involved, with interrogations taking up to 1 AM and only then her father is informed of what happened. Alice is on the receiving end of this when her own son is out for the evening, but doesn't contact her. And then gets a call from the police about her son. He's fine, just attempted to push a rolling car up a hill with his friends.

Retcon
 Alice Series / int_b2280b66
comment
Retcon: the books series was first launched in the mid 1980s and has since had been added to sporadically for the past two decades, which makes exactly what time period the Alice books take place ambiguous. In Agony of Alice, some of the things mentioned make it clear that it does take place around 1980 - 1990, where as the series continued, newer things such as Facebook, Twitter and similar were frequently mentioned. Later editions of the books changed some of the references in attempt to modernize. For example in the original books the girls compared their attractive teacher, Mr. Everett, to Robert Redford, while the 2011 re-release changed it to Brad Pitt as most young teens in the 2010's likely wouldn't know who the former was.

Naïve Everygirl: Alice, in spades, who's naïve and trusting to a fault and struggles with femininity through the absence of her mother. Reynolds herself mentioned that she intended Alice to be relatable to every girl out there and serve as a "best friend" of sorts to female teens. Elizabeth somewhat fits this to an extent as well, being awkward in terms of accepting her body.

Strong Family Resemblance: Alice is often remarked as being the spitting image of her mother, so much that her Alzheimer's-stricken grandfather mistakes her for Marie during a family reunion. Like Mother, Like Daughter: Alice is said to look very much like her mother, have similar values, though their characters were different. Alice also gets cancer, just like her mother did, but because medicine has advanced over the years, she managed to be perfectly cured. Eventually, Alice's daughter is described as looking and acting a lot like Alice did at her age.
