Ajan Harriet

Harriet's adventurous and inquisitive nature makes her such a memorable character. I wonder if Louise Fitzhugh drew from her own childhood or real-life kids when creating her.

Harriet's spying feels both relatable and a bit sneaky. I'm curious how other readers interpret her actions and whether they see her as a brave explorer or a boundary-crosser.

The story manages to be playful while also exploring important issues for middle-grade readers. Did the author intend to subtly teach these lessons through Harriet’s experiences?
