You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's Sleepover Party by Ann Ellis is a 1996 Scholastic hardcover from the "You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's" series — the book tie-in to the mega-hit Dualstar video series that had every kid in the mid-90s planning their own sleepover the second they finished reading it.

Why Collectors Love It:

The "You're Invited" series sits at the exact intersection of 90s nostalgia, Olsen twins memorabilia, and Scholastic licensed hardcovers — three collector categories that overlap more than you'd expect. The full-color photo format gives it a scrapbook quality that the chapter books in the series don't have, and the die-cut locket window on the front cover is the kind of interactive detail that made these books feel like an event. A clean pickup for Mary-Kate & Ashley collectors, 90s Scholastic enthusiasts, and anyone who had this on their shelf in elementary school.
