Child Queen

An adventure story of nine year old Polly and one of her many personas. Written in a time before political correctness, it may still be good reading for pre-adolescent children. Although some of the words are more advanced than I would think appropriate, this book would make a decent work for an early reader or as a bedtime story, short enough for one session but involved enough for children that have graduated beyond Hop On Pop and Go Dog Go, yet are not quite ready for lengthier stories like Dr. Doolittle and Stewart Little.
