Rosemary in Search of a Father

The full title is “Rosemary in Search of a Father”. A five-year-old little girl is told by her mother that Christmas probably will not happen for them this year; the mother has been working hard and has no money to spare. Rosemary decides to take matters into her own hands and goes out to find a father. It's a dear story that would be suitable for the whole family but enjoyable to adults also.

If your copy doesn't have illustrations, it's worth looking up on Project Gutenburg just to see the sweet pictures.
