LOVED it!! About a 13 yo girl who lost her father when she was 11/12 yo. Then she goes and lives in a boarding school for a year, then goes and lives with her great aunts until her uncle (who has legal guardianship of her) comes to parent her. She is frail, vain, and unhealthy when he gets there. He does all sorts of "experiments" with her for her health for a year. She has adventures with her 7 boy cousins, helps them with their problems, and grows very healthy!
