It has one of the crankiest neighbors I read about in a long, long time. This neighbor steals eggs, demands assistance with chores and yells at the kids.ChrisinNYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16876571838417116075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-9185038642945811562010-08-16T19:53:02.322-04:002010-08-16T19:53:02.322-04:00Boo Radley!Boo Radley!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05562461209837072383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-70806703211745371022010-08-16T12:15:19.331-04:002010-08-16T12:15:19.331-04:00Would the Grumbies, next door neighbors to Henry H...Would the Grumbies, next door neighbors to Henry Higgins, be considered cranky...or tormented?Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05316799279886354749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-13488926558769164922010-08-16T10:27:07.221-04:002010-08-16T10:27:07.221-04:00Yes, Hannah Tupper from WITCH OF BLACKBIRD POND is...Yes, Hannah Tupper from WITCH OF BLACKBIRD POND is a great addition -- as is Gertrustein from the "Anastasia" books!<br /><br />Peter <br />www.collectingchildrensbooks.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-232407119296098082010-08-16T00:50:33.763-04:002010-08-16T00:50:33.763-04:00Gertrustein was my first thought too. :)Gertrustein was my first thought too. :)grrlpuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09755649595417118072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-61421009362101594482010-08-15T23:14:43.812-04:002010-08-15T23:14:43.812-04:00I love Gertrustein in the Anastasia Krupnik books....I love Gertrustein in the Anastasia Krupnik books.Wendynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-20017438474408692482010-08-15T20:43:06.017-04:002010-08-15T20:43:06.017-04:00Regarding cranks, what about that old lady that Ki...Regarding cranks, what about that old lady that Kit befriends in The Witch of Blackbird Pond?Bybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10061186489010154661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-91336430141045034162010-08-15T18:27:17.446-04:002010-08-15T18:27:17.446-04:00Hi Nancy,

I hate to say this, but I tend to get A.M. Jenkins and Alex Flinn mixed up for some reason and this morning when writing the blog I forgot to connect REPOSSESSED with the name Jenkins -- which is too bad as I thought REPOSSESSED was a GREAT book!<br /><br />Thanks again for the correction,<br /><br />PeterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-32281430044189070042010-08-15T17:09:57.323-04:002010-08-15T17:09:57.323-04:00A.M.
