Read the whole thing in one sitting as soon as I'd finished the first book and then immediately picked up the third. This book is perfect

This second book in the Sue Barton series was as enjoyable as I remembered it.
It was fun getting to see Sue, Connie, and Kit again. Connie is more in this story than Kit is. I liked seeing Sue’s reactions to different situations at the hospital.
The care of babies especially has changed since the 1930s when this book was written, so I felt a mixture of emotions over that part of the story.
There is some sweet romance in this book, but nothing is objectionable except maybe a lack of communication at times, but thankfully those were short. A few kisses were mentioned, but they were not detailed.
