Marie-Grace finds a baby on their doorstop (as her papa is a doctor, this isn't totally random I suppose) and feels like she can don the older sister role again, as her own baby brother and mother died in an epidemic five years ago. However, doctor single dad is unfortunately busy enough that they really can't take on an infant, though not before he figures out a way to keep the foundling safe from slave catchers who want to claim him as property.

Still not a fan of this illustrator, sorry- maybe it's the posing and the lighting? but it feels like some kind of different-pieces-pasted-on-one-backdrop piece. ( )
