Audacity Jones to the Rescue

(3) 4-6 Eleven-year-old orphan Audacity Jones longs for the kind of adventure she reads about at Miss Maisie's School for Wayward Girls. She gets more than she bargained for, though, when she's mysteriously shuttled to Washington, DC, to help prevent a revenge plot against President Taft. Evocative descriptions, lively characters, and well-integrated historical details make this a sure bet for genre fans. Author's note included.
