Tales of Willimena

by Valerie Wilson Wesley

Tales of Willimena features the spunky young heroine in three separate adventures. She often finds herself in a little bit of trouble, but she always learns something along the way. In the first tale, Willimena spends most of her Girl Scout Cookie money to help someone out, and now has to think of a way to earn it back. In the second story, Willie gets to take care of the class guinea pig, but even that honor holds surprises. In the final tale, Willimena's cousin Teddy comes to town and completely charms her family and friends. What does a girl have to do to get noticed?
