Summary
When two unmarried aunts kindly agree to take in their poor relation, they find that young Rebecca Randall is more than they bargained for. The opinionated youngster is definitely a handful. Rebecca's lively and enthusiastic nature eventually win over all doubters, but not before she nearly turns the town of Riverboro topsy-turvy.
