Mrs. Gaskitt, the taxi-driving mother first met in The Man Who Wore All His Clothes, experiences a streak of good luck, while her children put up with a thieving substitute teacher (guess who comes to the rescue again?) in The Woman Who Won Things by Allan Ahlberg, illus. by Katharine McEwen. Humorous watercolor vignettes illustrate each snappy chapter. (May)
