No Trouble for Susan

by Jane Shaw

Christmas holidays for Susan and the three Carmichaels; and Midge dreaming of "glorious, peaceful messing about doing absolutely nothing." But no "peace on earth" with Susan around - although lots of "good-will towards men!"
With the serious single-mindedness of her race, Susan doggedly pursues her virtuous course of Do-goodery and Knight-errantry. "I don’t know what those awful Scotch expressions of yours mean," Midge is given to crying at moments of extreme exasperation when Susan is at her most trying. Not that Susan is a type with anyone could be exasperated for long, for an exceedingly warn heart beats fiercely beneath the tactless exterior - also her unconscious humour makes her an endless source of entertainment to her cousins.
But all this is unnecessary for readers of previous Susan Books, and they may rest assured that Susan has once more succeeded in complicating life for all around her - particularly the three Carmichaels.
