A patron is looking for a book she read a number of years ago. Details are sketchy and I’ve searched every combination I can think of-I’m hoping someone recognizes it. She said she thought it was set in England and is about a brother and sister who are orphaned. They run away, rather than be placed with the closest relative, and try to get to another, better liked relative. The only real detail she could remember was that the brother cut his sisters hair to make her look like a boy. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Lori-Hamlin Memorial Library
