When the Old Colonel becomes ill, the Little Colonel's parents must send her to boarding school. Merry times mix with lessons learned that were not in the school curriculum. Little Colonel fans will especially remember the Shadow Club and the story of the Three Weavers. This book was once considered so suggestive that many public libraries, including Pittsburgh and Boston, had it removed from their shelves. How times have changed.
"To All the Girls who, like the Little Colonel are "standing with reluctant feet where the brook and river meet, womanhood and childhood sweet."
