Judy's visit with good-hearted but crotchety old Aunt Maria was full of excitement. It began even before the conductor called, "All Aboard!" and never stopped until Judy started back home to the old Sampey Place.

First there was the ride in the red-wheeled buggy, then the little old lady on the train, and then the mystery of the two No. 11's on Poplar Street and the high hedge between them.

Here is a warm and enjoyable tale of small-town life and especially of a very real and lovable little girl. It is full of interest, both for the children who will meet Judy first in this book and for those who already know her through THE SECRET OF THE OLD SAMPEY PLACE.

From the dust jacket

 

Judy has never been away from her cozy home in the country before, but this summer she's to spend a whole month living in town with Aunt Maria on Poplar Street. Why does the street have two houses called Number Eleven? Why won't Aunt Maria speak to her neighbor? Come along with Judy as she makes new friends, solves mysteries, and brings joy to the people of Poplar Street.
