4-6Magnificent Lizzie Brown series.
The lively series, set in Victorian England, features fortuneteller Lizzie Brown--former orphan, now happily employed in Fitzy's traveling circus. In these installments, Lizzie and her fellow performers must solve a kidnapping (Fairy) and a robbery disguised as a haunting (Ghost). Their abilities to detect fraud (they know the tricks of the trade), goodhearted camaraderie, and Lizzie's "visions," will keep readers entertained. Review covers the following Magnificent Lizzie Brown titles: The Magnificent Lizzie Brown and the Fairy Child and The Magnificent Lizzie Brown and the Ghost Ship.
