Lost & Found

I enjoyed this whimsical tale Lost & Found by Brooke Davis an Australian writer.  Seven-year-old Millie is abandoned by her mother in a Perth department store.  Millie sets out to find her mother with the help of two older people she meets, Karl the Touch Typist and Agatha Pantha as well as a mannequin named Manny.  Millie seems obsesses with "dead things" and keeps a record of them.  She and her fellow adventurers travel east to look for Millie's mother.  Along the way they meet other wonderful characters and find a new life.  A lovely story.  31/2/5
