In this sequel to "Patty Fairfield", she sets up housekeeping for her father and sometimes succeeds, sometimes makes a mess of things. A small amount of "household management by example (good and bad)" didacticism goes down smoothly. I enjoyed a couple clever, funny scenes involving the servants, but this is otherwise significantly weaker than the first. (goodreads)
