Lucy Runs Away

Catherine Storr's sequel to Lucy would not be published today as it encourages kids to run away. But then this was written in the 1960s. It's innocent though. Not only does Lucy have adventures but she also saves two lives. In the original Lucy wanted to be a boy and this book addresses her as he many times which I thought was interesting. It's cute but not one of Storr's best.
