My daughter loves the American Girl books. This is the first book in the "Kit" series. A fun way to learn more about historical time periods. Kit is growing up in the depression. ( 1930's )

Kit Kittredge is a nine year old girl with a nose for news. But since most of the new in the early 1930's is about the hard times of the Depression, Kits writes her own newspaper stories. She report on what happens at home while Dad is at work-like the day Mother invites fussy Mrs. Howard and her son to stay with them. Kit is excited to have a boy her own age to play with, but Stirling is disappointment and he causes Kit nothing but trouble. Then when Dad loses his business becasue of the Depression, Mother gets a brainstorm that turns the Kittredge household upside down.
