The Kids of Degrassi Street was the first children's television series in the Degrassi franchise that ran as a collection of annual standalone short films that started with Ida Makes a Movie in 1979 running for twenty-six episodes to 1986. Eight books were published by Puffin Books (in the UK) and Lorimer Books (in the US) as novelisations of twenty-four of the twenty-six episodes. The franchise continued with several spin-off series including Degrassi Junior High (1987 to 1989), Degrassi High (1989 to 1991), Degrassi: The Next Generation (2001 to 2015) and Degrassi: Next Class (2016–2017). At least two of the books were re-published in the cover design of the later Degrassi Junior High books as part of the 'Degrassi Classic Novels' range. = In My Collection / = Not in My Collection
