Little Girl With Seven Names by Mabel Leigh Hunt
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is a sweet book from a by-gone era, where pregnancy wasn't talked about and babies just appear under the covers, after the older child has been whisked off for the night to a friend's family. A mother who is pregnant with twins and is in her second pregnancy most certainly wouldn't have as slim of a waist as is depicted in one of the pictures.
Nevertheless, it is nice to see the sensitive manner in which the girl goes about thinking about her names. And gives me a feeling of nostalgia to read about young children working hard to be good.
