A humorous tale told through the diary of Evelyn May a little girl who the anonymous writer describes as "the seed of a flapper" complete with a child's naive spelling and vocabulary. Evelyn May travels to America with her English mother and American Father and so ensues much UK vs US bickering and cultural satire with a distinctly 1920s slant.
