Book Description

Welcome to Magnolia Street, where Charlie has just moved into her new home. It isn't long before Charlie's exploring, meeting all of her new neighbors, and getting herself into trouble.

Both girls and boys will cheer for this spunky girl as she takes on Magnolia Street and blossoms day by day.
