Illustrated by
Christine Davenier.
Being a Navy brat is full of activity and challenges--just the way irrepressible nine-year-old Piper Reed likes it. When Chief Reed announces they'll be moving to Pensacola, Florida, Piper's optimistic spirit gets her through. Holt writes with a light touch as she captures the details of military life through Piper's personable voice. Davenier's pen and wash sketches are aptly exuberant.
