Operation Clean Sweep

Rating:
Summary: Historical Fiction can be a hoot!
Review: In Operation Clean Sweep, Darleen Bailey Beard shows us some important things about how attitudes toward women have changed, but she does it with humor and good fun. Cornelius and his best pal Otis are determined to figure out what the women are up to during secret meetings to formulate a plan to take over town government -- but figuring out what to do about the sister suffragists doesn't occupy all their time. Cornelius also learns how to talk to a pretty girl (imagine her with boogers -- lots of boogers) and a thing or two about catching desperate characters. All the pieces come together to make this a lively story with enough history to make it good for you.
