This was given to me when I was young, and I remember enjoying it. I read it to my 9 year old, and he enjoyed it too. I was impressed with the amount of revolutionary history it contained. I didn't realize ruffles had to do with drums as well as dresses.

(1949) Excellent teen romance about a young artist who goes to work in Peter Hunt's studio in Provincetown decorating furniture for the summer. Hijinks and romance ensue.
