Joyous Peggy by Lillian Grace Copp
Joyous Peggy 1931 This is a very interesting book. Due to a case of mistaken identity Peggy, an orphan girl, is sent to the home of Miss Rebecca Armstrong; a lady who doesn't much like kids, is rather bitter and is thought of as uppity by most of the town. The rest of the book reads like a poorly written take-off of Pollyanna . Peggy = Pollyanna Miss Armstrong = Miss Polly Harrington Mr. Ormand = Mr. Pendleton Bobby = Jimmy Bean etc. Of course Peggy by being "joyous" changes about everyone in the town. Peggy can be a bit annoying at times. She acts so dense. Joyous Peggy starts out good, but quickly becomes boring when when it starts to sound like Pollyanna .
