    About this audiobook

    Combining the heart of her Newbery Honor-winning fiction and the spirit of her legendary Baby-Sitters Club series, Ann M. Martin introduces a timeless new series for girls.

    Flora and Ruby do not want to move to Camden Falls. But they don't really have a choice -- their parents are dead and their grandmother, Min, is taking them in. It's strange to be in a new place. But luckily, it's a very welcoming place.Min runs a sewing store, Needle & Thread, at the heart of Main Street in Camden Falls. There, Flora and Ruby become friends with Olivia, who likes to organize things, and Nikki, who lives on the wrong side of the tracks. Even if Flora and Ruby never expected it to, Camden Falls becomes their home . . . and its stories become a part of their stories.

      I almost gave up on this book after disk 1. I'm glad I stuck it out because it ended up being a decent children's realistic fiction story. This small town had a lot of stuff going on around it. Ann M. Martin touched on quite a few issues without being too graphic or too preachy. I think this series would appeal to a lot of young girls because they could see themselves somewhere in the book. She even managed to catch my attention with a small cliffhanger at the end. Flora found a picture of her mother with Scary Mary". Darn you Ann M. Martin, what's the connection?!"
    • 5/5
      This is the first book of Ann M. Martin's new series 'Main Street'. Flora and Ruby are sent to their grandmother Min's house in Camden Falls, after their parents are killed in an accident. The sisters become friends with Olivia, who lives next door to them. Min and Olivia's grandmother,Gigi, own a sewing store called Needle and Thread. The three girls also befriend Nikki, a girl whose family has a bad reputation because her father is an alchoholic. Flora's interests include sewing, making cards, knitting and more. Flora is quiet, and would rather not draw too much attention to herself. Ruby is the opposite, she loves to sing, dance and act. Olivia is very smart- she skipped 2nd grade. She is also a very organised person.Nikki is a great artist- she loves to draw pictures. Before Flora and Ruby moved to town, she had no friends.Also, her father prevented her from doing things that would draw attention to their family.Welcome to Camden Falls is a great book, I really enjoyed reading about some of the adventures that were found in the first book of Main Stret.
