'This is the second book in a series about nine-year-old Harriet Bright. It contains three hilarious stories about Harriet and her best friend, Melly Fanshawe, and has lovely illustrations throughout.

'"Laugh Out Loud": Harriet Bright convinces her friends that there is a great mystery to solve - why don't adults laugh as much as kids? A very funny story that has some unusual outcomes.

'"Only, Lonely Me": Harriet's class has a school project - making a family tree. But Harriet is an only child. And as Harriet delves into her family history she discovers something even more terrible: she is not the first Harriet Bright!

'"Talent Take Two": Mr Beatty, the general store owner, is holding the annual neighbourhood talent quest. Harriet and her best friend Melly want to enter it. But first they have to find their 'talent' and they only have one week to do it!' (From the publisher's website.)
