Title: My Friend Natalie
Subtitle: The Barkley Street Six-Pack
First published: June 1979
Description: Barkley Street was almost like the street where Jane's dad had grown up, with big back yards and lots of kids. Shy, plain Jane is delighted with her new best friend, but Natalie managed to keep the kids apart with magic and cruelty. This association costs her the friendship of all the other kids. How Jane learned to think for herself?
