Meet The
COBBLE STREET COUSINS
- Lily, who wants to be a poet
- Tess, who wants to be a Broadway star
- Rosie, who wants a little cottage with flowers by the door
Right now, though, the cousins are sharing an attic bedroom in their Aunt Lucy's light blue house on Cobble Street, and happily making plans for the summer. A cookie company seems the perfect way to make a little money, but it turns out to be much more—an opportunity to meet some very special neighbors!

Cobble Street Cousins
Reviewed by Sara Masarik
This series has six books. One for each of the four seasons of the year, a fifth book celebrating the girls’ reunion with their parents, and a final book celebrating Aunt Lucy’s wedding. Throughout the books, the 10-year-old girls run a little baking business, befriend a sweet elderly neighbor who gives them sewing lessons, meet a retired senator, set up a little newspaper, plan a talent show, and plan a reunion party. They even do a little matchmaking between their baking business customer, Michael, and their aunt Lucy. All in all, it’s a beautiful window into little girl life.

Tess’s mother and the twins’ parents are professional ballet dancers who are on a one-year world tour with the dance company. While the dancers are traveling, the cousins move into Aunt Lucy’s attic and spend a year having quintessentially girl adventures in everyday life.
