Annie’s Adventures (The Sisters 8)

A rather large problem has befallen the Huit girls. (Sisters actually. Octuplets to be exact.) One particular New Years Eve the girls wait for their mommy to bring them hot chocolate and their daddy to return with more wood for the fire. But they dont. Mommy and Daddy that is. Theyre gone. Poof! Maybe deadno one knows for sure. You must see the problem here. Eight little girls on their own no mommy or daddy to take care of them. This is not a good thing. So now these little girls must take care of themselves. Get to school cook the meals feed the cats (eight of them too) and pay the bills. They cant ask for help oh no. Any self-respecting adult would surely call in social services and those well-meaning people would have to split them up. After losing their parents being split up would be completely unbearable. At the same time the question remains:What happened to Mommy and Daddy? The Sisters Eight (as they are called affectionately and otherwise) are determined to find out. Luckily they do seem to have someone or something helping them. Notes keep appearing behind a loose brick in the fireplace. Its a good old-fashioned mystery with missing (or dead) parents nosy neighbors talking refrigerators foul-smelling fruitcake (is there any other kind?) and even a little magic. Eight little girls eight cats and one big mysterylet the fun begin! Annies Adventures wherein the girls parents go missing (or die) and the girls learn each one has a power and gift. Annie being the oldest is the first to discover hers.
