Kim's City Side


Kimmy went to her room to get her Math book. On the way, she passed her parent's room.
I don't know, Hugh,” her mother's voice went. “I don't think Kim's ready.”
But, Sheila! Just think of it! Broadway, Shell, Broadway!” came her father's excited voice.
Kim pressed her ear against the door. It was evesdropping, but a
conversation with her name was just too interesting.
NOT Brodway, Hugh! Harley Street! That's another country! Don't just think of yourself! We can't move to New York! Not now!” her mother persuaded.
Kim froze. Move? New York? Broadway? Words swirled in her head, and her heart swelled. Maybe Dad was joking? But no, they were so serious and excited....
This is Kim Hareth, twelve year old daughter of Hugh Hareth and Sheila Bridges. She lives in a flat in the outskirts of London. Happy? Yes, until she hears something she just can't except.
She moves, to the dazzling New York city, Harley Street. Kimmy'll just have to get used to crowded, spaceless, and rowdy. But she always secretly wishes of clean, fresh air, calm, peaceful parks, and quiet afternoons. Will she get to see Maryeth Road again?
