A volume of five read-aloud stories about a small, spirited girl called Carrie, and some of the big events in her life. The day Dad comes home from China, for instance, with a case to unpack and presents to discover; and Dressing-up Day at scool, when all the children have to go as a character from a book. Carrie is full of ideas and enterprise, she opens a sports club in her back garden and makes her granny an ingenious gift when she has to go into hospital for an eye operation. But the pinnacle of Carrie's life so far, is the day that she climbs a mountain. June Crebbin has previously written "Fly-by-Night", "Ride to the Rescue", "The Jungle Sale" and "The Dinosaurs Dinner". Thelma Lambert has also illustrated "Jackson's Juniors".
