      Missy is a light, breezy novel with a charming, yet slightly idiotic, main character. I found myself comparing it with the Betsy/Tacy books, the Little House on the Prarie series, and anything written by Grace Livingston Churchill. Overall, it is a wonderful piece of old-fashioned 'bubblegum' reading.
