Minor: Death of parent, Child abuse, and Death
Spoiler
The basis of the series is that these orphans are chased around the world by an abusive "relative" who wants to steal their fortune. Death and misfortune follow them around. It is often brief and not graphic as this is a children's series, but may not be something you wish to read about or have your children read about.yeli_reads's review
