Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Eleven-year-old Rebecca Randall is quite a handful--and now she's leaving her beloved Sunnybrook Farm to live with her well-to-do elderly aunts and get an education. But they were expecting Rebecca's quiet, hard-working older sister instead. Can the bright-eyed and talkative girl win them over...especially her strict, rule-bound Aunt Miranda? Just as Rebecca's "grand spirit" charms everyone in the story, it will captivate readers, too.
An abridged version of Kate Douglas Wiggin's classic story of talkative, ten-year-old Rebecca's adventures after she leaves her home at Sunnybrook Farm to go live in town with her spinster aunts, one harsh and demanding, the other soft and sentimental.
