Readers who recall the charm of Five Little Peppers and How They Grew and Five Little Peppers Grown Up need no introduction to Phronsie, the youngest and dearest of the lovable Pepper family. Phronsie, now grown to young womanhood, keeps the little brown house ringing with merry laughter, telling stories of her own happy childhood days to little Barby and Elyot, Polly's and Jasper's two children.

The darling Grandfather King and the favorite of everybody in the village, Phronsie, who always tries to make people happy, almost loses her own chance for happiness. But the Peppers have a way of making it all come out right, and the story ends with a delightful climax that will please the thousands of children who love this charming family.
