If you were so unlucky as to have only one of the Frances books, this would be the one to have. This thing is high art, with a simple plot that unfolds logically to an inevitable conclusion, and an economy of language that makes it memorable. I can recite parts of it still, though the children I read it to are long grown and gone.
