4-6Unintentional Adventures of the Bland Sisters series.
Illustrated by
Jen Hill.
Sisters Kale and Jaundice Bland have barely recovered from being kidnapped by pirates when another letter from their parents arrives instructing them to meet long-lost Aunt Shallot at the train station. What follows is a madcap railroad adventure in which the girls are roped into being magician's assistants and junior detectives. Kale and Jaundice are anything but bland in this quirky, fast-paced second volume.
