This charming work by Newbury Award winner Eleanor Estes portrays the daily lives of a widow and her four children in the fictitious town of Cranbury, Connecticut. The tales may seem to be from a more innocent time: one of the Moffat girls is scared to death of the police chief because she thinks she's been rude to him, the two boys hitch a ride on the train to the next town, the children enjoy the fun of Halloween pranks. The performances are splendid. A woman with a clear and winsome voice performs the narrative. The characters are performed by individual cast members every bit as winsomely and with great verve.
