Estes, Eleanor. The Moffats. New York: Harcourt, Brace & World, 1941. Print.
Annotation: Each day brings another adventure for members of the Moffat Family.
Jane Moffat, age nine, lives in the yellow house on New Dollar Street. Her siblings are Sylvie, Joey and Rufus. Mama provides for this endearing family by sewing for the ladies of the town. Drop in on the "everyday" of these lively characters. Right away you will recognize people that you know even though the story is set almost 100 years ago. Visit their hometown. You'll find a hitching post in front of the house and the Doctor makes house calls.
With each chapter, expect new adventure and, gently, we experience the ups and downs of their lives. This is a series, so, follow them to enjoy Moffat love, loyalty and determination.
