Happy Birthday, Kit!

from American Girl Talk Hosted by Caroline Schaeffer

The eggman cometh! Join us as we celebrate (or barely reference) Kit's upcoming 10th birthday! When Aunt Millie comes to town, she brings with her tons of ideas on how the Kittredges can actually save money and turn a profit with their failing boarding house business - but will the Kittredges be happy with these changes, or will they be inexplicably shamed by the idea of eating peaches out of a dented can? Only time will tell, and boy, does this book take its time getting to the point! This book? Boring. This episode? Very entertaining. So listen in, lest you summon the wrath of the ragman!
