Eight Hughes children grow up in a hotel during the 1920s, and along the way, unpredictable and sometimes humorous things happen! Why do we have to move? Who stole the silverware? Ooh, who's that handsome young man? Where's Father? All these questions and more confront Carrie and her siblings in this short story collection, Adventures of the Hotel Sisters. Now single, Mother and her children struggle to keep their hotel financially afloat after Father mysteriously leaves home. Young readers will be fascinated by hints of history, clothing, and language of the Roaring Twenties and will laugh along with Carrie, the youngest, who strives to settle herself into her new hotel surroundings. She's barely four when the family is uprooted, and in the last story, she turns 16. Generally geared for kids about 11-14, older folks who might recall the 1920s will also find this books a hoot. It's a 6x9 paperback with charming black & white illustrations by Colleen Dwire at the beginning of each story. $12.
