    Children's book based on a young girl and the Oregon trail
    I remember reading a children's book several years ago about a young girl and her family on the Oregon trail. From what I remember, it was a fiction series and she goes through a lot of adventures on her way there. She makes friends with a young boy, I believe run into a situation with a river crossing, and when they get to their new home, there was a time where they had trouble due to the gold rush. I'm really not sure but I hope someone can help me!

    Ask at the children's reference desk -- reader's advisory. They will check print material and databases to find what you are looking for.

Children's book about a messy girl from the 80's [ 1 Answers ]

I am looking for the title to a children's book I read during the 80's. It was about a messy little girl who had a ballet recital. She kept her leotard in a book about a dancing hippo.
