Dear Del

Fran is looking forward to a girl of her own age coming to stay, until Del arrives and turns out to be a citywise girl of mildly outrageous appearance who's not averse to scrawling graffiti and to taking things she wants without paying for them. Fran's brother, Barney, takes to Del unexpectedly, but the rest of the family has a hard time at first until Del thaws out a bit and Fran finds it in her to tackle Del about the things she's done.
