Three cousins, Lily, Tess, and Rosie, live with their Aunt Lucy in a pretty blue house on Cobble Street. After school, the girls play in the attic while they wait for Aunt Lucy to come home from her colorful flower shop. One afternoon, the cousins decide to build a dollhouse that looks exactly like Aunt Lucy's shop. They make a trip to The Olde Craft Shoppe, where they find wonderful things for their dollhouse: tiny furniture and teapots. Won't Aunt Lucy be surprised when she sees what they have made! Cynthia Rylant, Newbery Award-winning author of A Fine White Dust, the Mr. Putter and Tabby books, and the Henry and Mudge series, has created a gentle chapter book that will enchant young readers. Suzanne Toren's sunny narration captures each happy moment the cousins share.

      In this newest series from Cynthia Rylant, three cousins, Lily, Tess, and Rosie, live with their Aunt Lucy while their parents are away. A LITTLE SHOPPING takes them to the Olde Craft Shoppe to buy furniture and other items for the dollhouse they're making. In this cheerful, somewhat traditional story, Suzanne Toren sets a light, happy tone as the girls discuss their project. Toren gives each girl her own distinct voice: Lily speaks softly in thoughtful, considered tones; Tess, who wants to be an actress, speaks in a matter-of-fact yet flamboyant voice; Rosie is easygoing and content. Aunt Lucy, her boyfriend, and other adult characters also have distinct voices. Although light in plot, the enthusiastic narration manages to bring the story to life. W.L.S.
