"The Corner House Girls Growing Up" by Grace Brooks Hill is a delightful narrative that follows the lives of the Kenway sisters-Ruth, Agnes, Tess, and Dot-as they navigate the challenges and joys of growing up in the quaint town of Milton. The story begins with Tess's fascination with aeroplanes, leading to the creation of an aerial tramway with the help of their neighbor, Sammy Pinkney, and Neale O'Neil, a close family friend. This whimsical project reflects the imaginative and adventurous spirit of the children.
