Eloise in Moscow

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Hilary Knight. Eloise heads north in a book first published during the Cold War. Setting their usual frantic pace, Eloise and Nanny tour Moscow. Most kids probably won't get the jokes about Russia, but adults who love "this absolutely darling little sweetnik" will find her adventures amusing, even if they are un-p.c. Pen-and-ink drawings use gold instead of Knight's usual pink.
