Rose is a dainty 13-yr. orphan under the care of two coddling aunts. Then Uncle Alex, her true legal guardian, comes back from his travels around the world. Uncle Alex is appalled by Rose's pale demeanor and quiet manners. He assumes care and attempts to nurture her into a strong, healthy, educated young woman. His approach entails adventures to far away places and allowing Rose to play with her seven energetic male "cousins" (not blood related).
Uncle Alex's views on raising women seem outlandish to Rose's Aunts, but Rose begins to shine under new regimen.
