This story doesn't really have any unfavorable aspects. It is a simple story of a loving family and their friends that a young girl could read, but that also could entertain a mother, older sister, or even a brother. This family is so sweet and charming, you will find yourself falling in love with their quaint little ways!
Margaret Sidney wrote many other books in the "Pepper Series" including The Five Little Peppers Abroad, The Five Little Peppers at School, The Five Little Peppers Midway, and The Five Little Peppers Grown Up. I highly recommend all of these stories for children of all ages!
