The Fairchild family is here again and this time, Bonnie is old enough to begin the great adventure-School! We join her in excruciating anticipation of the first day, when Bonnie will wear her new dress, carry a first reader and slate, and-displaying nonchalance as she braves the swinging bridge-enter into the mysteries of schoolroom learning and playground rites in a woodland setting of the early 1900s. Bonnie's older brother and three sisters, her various classmates and Miss Cora, her teacher, add their liveliness to an eventful season of learning-on every front-in the Kentucky Hills. Rebecca Caudill's unfailing insights into a child's heart are enhanced by Decie Merwin's skillful drawings. Read an excerpt from this book in our Reading Room.

Reviews"My seven-year-old daughter, who is just getting comfortable with reading chapter books, received this book for Christmas (we read the first one in the series together). She read it slowly, but every chapter or so she would come to me, beaming, to say that she LOVED this book, and when she finished it, she was so happy and proud. Thanks so much for providing wholesome books about family life, and for producing it so attractively. The picture on the cover was a huge help to my daughter."
