Wendy Anderson Halperin.
Three cousins spend a year living with their Aunt Lucy while their parents tour Europe with a ballet company. The girls get along beautifully, think of wonderful projects, and adore their aunt and her charming boyfriend. Even with an overdose of sweetness and little character development, the books contain much that will appeal to newly emergent girl readers. Halperin's delicate and detailed pencil drawings suit the tension-free stories.
