"A frail city girl who needs fresh country air is being sent to the Jansi's house. The "frail city girl's" name is Kate. Jansi and Kate are cousins..... and there around the same age! But Kate is not at all what uncle Sandor his name is said she was like. Truth is Kate is really a Snobby, yelling brat who sometimes looks like an angel but is just getting into more and more trouble. Fredrick, his mother, and father soon find that out! But as time goes on Kate changes. It takes a lot of time for her to change and now and than she has adventures! Kate is mysterious and fun loving and can ride a horse almost as good as "The good Master". But soon Kate is lovable and is longing for her father who sent her away to his brother because Kate was so snobby and he couldn't control her. This was a really good book! It was so fun to read!"
"Jancsi and his father, Marton, don't know wha they're getting into when they pick up Kate, Jancsi's cousin from the city, at the train station. Her father had written that she was "delicate" and had "had the measles" recently. They expect a shy little girl. They don't know that Kate's father had LIED about her!"
"Stories of life on a Hungarian farm in the years before World War I. Not as mature as The Singing Tree, but still fun. I really love Kate Seredy's illustrations. Beautiful!"
