BOOK SUMMARY
A little girl sets off with her basket to do some shopping for her mother, walking through her neighbour-hood with her dog. It is a lively community and, on her way, the girl comes across some interesting char-acters, all busily engaged in their daily activities. Sometimes the girl simply watches them, and at other times she becomes involved with them. She returns home at the end of her walk with a full basket of fruit which she enjoys eating with her family.
