In \u003cstrong\u003eWhere Are You Going, Baby Lincoln?\u003c\/strong\u003e, the timid younger sister of bossy Eugenia finally strikes out on her own, discovering unexpected courage along a train journey. \u003cstrong\u003eEugenia Lincoln and the Unexpected Package\u003c\/strong\u003e turns the tables, as the notoriously stern, practical Eugenia is forced to confront a surprise that awakens an unlikely musical passion. \u003cstrong\u003eStella Endicott and the Anything-Is-Possible Poem\u003c\/strong\u003e brings a whole school day of poetry, friendship and one very inspiring pig, while \u003cstrong\u003eFranklin Endicott and the Third Key\u003c\/strong\u003e follows an anxious worrier whose carefully catalogued fears are gently challenged by a neighbourhood adventure. Each book stands alone but rewards readers who follow the whole street's story, and Chris Van Dusen's warm, retro-styled illustrations bring every character vividly to life.
