Kit Kittredge is a nine year old girl with a nose for news. But since most of the new in the early 1930's is about the hard times of the Depression, Kits writes her own newspaper stories. She report on what happens at home while Dad is at work-like the day Mother invites fussy Mrs. Howard and her son to stay with them.
