Five Little Peppers and How They Grew / Margaret Sidney 256 p.

Mrs. Pepper, a widow, with five children struggles to provide the necessities; warmth and love abounds so much so that a wealthy young boy is so drawn to them that the Peppers find luck coming their way.

I read this because the Gilbreth's mention in Cheaper by the Dozen that this was a favorite of theirs and their mother.

Appeals:  character-driven, fast-paced, feel-good, moving, conversational.
