Bought at a second hand shop on a whim. Did not expect to find it so poignant and charming.
Yes - the children were a little precocious for their age... but this book captured the innocence of youth.

I loved loved loved boarding school books, and this was the best, full of memorable situations and details. The Ice Cream cone costumes! The bunk beds! I can't be too sorry Nordstrom didn't write anything else, since she edited so many classic children's books.
Other fun books: Little Men, Witch Week, Apples Every Day (more YA), A Little Princess.

I LOVED Kit Pearson when I was a kid, and I know I read this one a couple times (I was a big re-reader) but I don't remember much beyond its boarding school setting. @Karisimo
I resisted this for some stupid reason, I was recommended to read this by a dear friend and I told her I would think about it. Instead, I inquired with Libby as to availability. In fact, I felt rather guilty that I displayed such a lack of enthusiasm to my friend that I immediately requested eBook and/or audio.
The audio is fantastic! I enjoyed this so much!! I laughed, I cried, I wanted to hug all the characters 🤣

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!
