Miss Thistledown

"Katie grows tall," worried Aunt Mary, "but she doesn't grow stout." "I'm following right on like my mamma," replied Flyaway. "She's tall and little, and I'm tall and little." Dr. De Bruler sent her to "Porty-land,"¿Maine, for the cooler air and she was only too happy to go visit her family. The Parlins and Cliffords were reunited once more. With the cousins getting older (Horace was to enter college in the fall), they faced new problems and challenges. Grandma Parlin and Grandma Read were always there to dispense sage advice to Prudy and Dotty, while Horace had his wits and resolve tested at Moosehead Lake. And through it all, Flyway was Flyaway.
