Book Description
Excerpt from The Little Colonel's Christmas Vacation Warwick Hall looked more like an old English castle than a modern boarding-school for girls. Gazing at its high towers and massive portal, one almost expected to see some velvet-clad page or lady-in-waiting come down the many flights of marble steps leading between stately terraces to the river. Even a knight with a gerfalcon on his wrist would not have seemed out of place, and if a slow-going barge had trailed by between the willow-fringed banks of the Potomac, it would have seemed more in keeping with the scene than the steamboats puffing past to Mount Vernon, with crowds of excursionists on deck.

When Christmas break comes along, Lloyd and her friends are filled with excitement over all of the parties and dances that they will attend.

Annie Fellows Johnston skillfully recreates the difficulties and joys that are a part of becoming a woman.
