Book Description:
Life with seven boy cousins isn't quite what Rose expected. Left an orphan after her father's death, Rose Campbell is sent to live at the "Aunt Hill" with her six aunts and seven rowdy boy cousins. For someone who is used to a girl's boarding school, it all seems pretty overwhelming. Her guardian, Uncle Alec, makes her eat healthy things like oatmeal, and even tries to get her to give up her pretty dresses for drab, sensible clothes. Will Rose ever get used to her uncle's crazy notions and all her noisy relatives? Complete and unabridged.

Rhonda D. (Rose's life is turned upside down when her father dies. She goes to live with her family including 8 boy cousins that live close by. The aunts want to keep her in the house quiet, but this only makes her lonely and grieving. When Uncle Alec arrives, he decides she needs more fresh air and outside play. Rose thrives on the fun loving and lively cousins!
This is not the quality of Little Women, but still is a fun read.
