Anabel / Edgar Johnson, An Alien Music, 1982 . Maybe a long shot based on dates, but this may be An Alien Music (def has the dandelion leaves and hydroponics on a spaceship): “Sixteen-year-old Jesse relates the experiences of the Sky-Lab Seven crew as they become the sole survivors of the dying planet Earth only to have their plans to colonize Mars irreversibly shattered.” S707: Unwell bird panel publication I had a little board book with a picture of a sick bird, I think it is a robin with a thermometer. Text says (I think) rest rest rest is best best best so put this bird to bed a pillow neath his head and rest his temperature. For he has a common cold for which I have been told there is no cure S708: Siblings for the Paris My book was probably written sometime in the 1970s or early 1980s. It’s about 2 sisters. The older one, Babette, is studying ballet in Paris. She has a boyfriend who is a chef. Her younger sister goes to Paris to live with her. They ed Minette? Thank you! S709: Short scary story about one exactly who disguises themselves given that a lady entitled Eunice This is a short scary story. On a stormy night, people hear a knock at the door. A little older lady asks if she can come in to keep warm by their fire & says her name is Eunice. Later the people notice she has hair on the back of her hands and is wearing boots under her long skirt–Eunice is a man!
Thank you!
I originally sent this book title as an answer in for C738 and was waiting to see if anyone else had a different answer. But the story “The Ghostly Hand of Spital House” within this book involves a man dressed as a woman asking if “she” can spend the night by the fire at the inn. The observant servant (I think her name was Bella) notices that the guest is wearing heavy men’s boots. She fakes sleeping in order to keep an eye on the guest, and when he thinks that everyone is asleep, he uses a dead man’s hand and a candle to cast a spell to keep all the sleepers in the house asleep. But the servant is not asleep, so she is not under the spell. She must save the household before the robber lets his band of thieves into the house. S710: Snowed in at Grandmother’s home Granddaughter staying at Grandmother’s home in the country during a snowstorm and powercut, sleeping by the fire and eating porridge with peaches, making snow angels next day. A favorite children’s book from our school library in the 1980s.

Elaine Moore, Grandma’s Promise, 1988. There’s no plot per se, but there’s a storm soon after Kim arrives, so she and Grandma have a mini-adventure without electricity for several days. They pack pine cones with peanut butter and cornmeal for the birds, go ice skating, and snuggle into a bed roll beside the wood stove. S711: Short story collection, monkey, coconut cake, ghost facts, two students, black and white graphics SOLVED: Childcraft. It’s definitely “Wappie’s Surprise Cake” from the Childcraft book. S712: Miracle Household trying to find a good children’s / younger mature chapter publication We read within the kissbrides.com her latest blog 80s (but i have no clue when it is composed) on the a good girl which decorates a key cottage having seashells.
