I saw this book and book 3 of this series at a used bookstore and I wanted to try them because I love Ann M Martin's other famous book series aka The Baby-Sitters Cub. For anyone who hasn't read this series yet, I'll give you a synopsis. Main street books are about Flora and Ruby Northrop who are two girls who've lost their parents in a car crash, and move to Camden Falls Massachusets with their grandmother, and the adventures they have with your friends. There are some complex topics, like a character's abusive alcoholic father which may be intense for some readers. All in all I recomend this book for ages 8+

It's autumn in Camden Falls, and Flora and Ruby are just starting to settle into the town. Flora is worried about spending the first Thanksgiving without their parents. Ruby is worried about getting a part in her school musical. And their new friends, Olivia and Nikki, are facing problems of their own. But the friendship that ties them together will also give them the strength to work things out -- one stitch at a time.
