Molly, new to the neighborhood, becomes instant best friends with plucky, resourceful Albertina. Their friendship is temporarily jeopardized when Molly overhears Albertina telling tough-talking, karate-kicking Violet that Molly has a nightlight. All is resolved in a gently surprising way. A nifty early chapter book that will claim a solid place in this growing genre.
