Book Synopsis Aunt Jane's Nieces by : L. Frank Baum
Download or read book Aunt Jane's Nieces written by L. Frank Baum. This book was released on 2011-05-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, this book, which Wizard of Oz author L. Frank Baum wrote under the pen name Edith Van Dyne, is much in the same vein as Alcott's cozy coming-of-age tale. The first in a series, the story of this novel follows three nieces who are summoned to their wealthy aunt's estate so she can decide to whom she will bequeath her sizable inheritance. Although the girls couldn't be more different personality-wise, a series of calamities brings them closer together. Aunt Hane's Nieces is a delightful read for fans of classic young adult fiction.
