Abandoned by her parents at birth and raised by her beloved Nan, the spirited seven-year-old much prefers the company of Huckleberry Finn, Victor Frankenstein, and Captain Ahab to the people of her snooty small town. But when sheâÇÖs babysat by her next-door neighbor, the precocious child is shocked to learn what her grandmother wonâÇÖt tell her: SheâÇÖs the subject of a satirical local comic strip.áExploring a past at once foreign and familiar, the whip-smart little girl begins to realize why everyone treats her oddly. And as she seeks to understand her strange start in life, CeliaâÇÖs absentee parents return, planning to take her from the only family sheâÇÖs ever known.áWill this unruly youngster thwart the schemes of awful adults?áCanterberry Tales is the laugh-out-loud first book in The Happy Valley Chronicles humorous womenâÇÖs fiction series.
