This is the opening line of one book in a series of books.

The first lines of most of the rest of the books give the game away immediately, but here's a couple that don't:

"This is a story about something that happened long ago when your grandfather was a child."

"It was a dull autumn day and Jill Pole was crying behind the gym."

So - identify all three books, and the series!
