Susi Gregg Fowler grew up in Juneau, Alaska, and after several years of travel, college, and work elsewhere, she returned to Juneau to live. She has worked on many books along with her husband, Jim, and one of their picture books from Greenwillow, I’ll See You When the Moon Is Full, won a Christopher Award in 1995.
Grade 2-4-Molly knew making friends in a new neighborhood wouldn't be easy. Her suspicions are confirmed when her first encounter is with Violet, the neighborhood bully. But then she meets Albertina. Together, with Grandfather's help, the two girls build a tree house. Although Molly knows Albertina and Violet are friends, she continues to rebuff the bully. However, her trust in her new friend is violated when she discovers that Albertina has told Violet about her fear of the dark. Eventually the three-way friendship has a chance when the girls learn that Violet shares the same fear and has admired Molly all along for her competence with tools and the designing and building of the wonderful tree house. Readers will appreciate this determined young girl and the matter-of-fact Albertina, who seems destined for her own story in a sequel. Several black-and-blue watercolors per chapter lighten the pages. The emotional relationships as well as the events ring true in this fine tale for newly competent chapter-book fans.
