Books with title The Abbey Girls again

Avril rated it it was amazing.My favourite in the whole series, the book in which we meet Rosamund and Maidlin. Some painful class-consciousness, and a promotion of noblesse oblige that sometimes sets my radical republican Australian teeth on edge—but still a wonderful escape for times when the real world is difficult.Note: This is the abridged edition from The Children's Press. We have the full edition under development.

Little Cecily, of the shining read hair and volatile temper holds the centre of the stage, from the minute she is discovered behind a thorn bush piping her favourite dance-tunes on a penny whistle. That starts Maribel and Rosalind, Mrs. Raymond and Lady Marchwood, eagerly planning a musical future for the red-headed "Pied Piper" whose perfect rhythm can set their feet tapping at once. The Abbey Girls Play Up is simply full of lively and interesting people who, as well as planning Cecily's future, make the happiest discoveries about her lost French childhood.
