Pretty solid collection of Pride and Prejudice variations involving alternate versions of Lydia's elopement and how it affects Darcy and Lizzy's HAE. 
It's nice that they are all quite different so it doesn't feel repetitive. There are a few errors in period accuracy but nothing too distracting. There are lovely romantic moments and some dramatic ones. I quite enjoyed it

Such a cute yet educational story! This book looks at independent learning of history and shows children how they can research and present their studies in history in a way that is not preachy or boring. 
There are some cool history facts throughout and examples of teamwork and supporting each others learning. 
Some of the characters reminded me of the cartoon Arthur though (Buster and Francine?)
