(3) 4-6 After the death of her free-spirited mother, fifth-grader Livvy is sent from New York to Baltimore to live with Jessie Barnes, her mother's sensible, antique-shop-owning friend. Livvy's narration, in the form of stories told to her mother, often seems overly mature, but presents a quiet, reassuring portrait of a child adjusting to a new life.
