(4) 1-3 American Girls Collection series. Illustrated by Walter Rane & Susan McAliley. Living cheerfully through the Depression is the theme of these formulaic series entries. Kit runs off to experience hobo life in the rather unrealistic Saves. She uses her writing skills to bring attention to homeless children in Changes. In Birthday, everybody celebrates the old-fashioned way. The idealized paintings add to the glossy look at the era, but the appended historical sections add authenticity. [Review covers these American Girls Collection titles: Changes for Kit; Happy Birthday, Kit!; Kit Saves the Day.]
