When Rose Campbell, a shy orphan, arrives at "The Aunt Hill" to live with her six children and seven noisy male cousins, she is completely overwhelmed. How could such a fragile young lady, accustomed to the quiet corridors of a boarding school for girls, exist in such a spiritual house? Uncle Alex's arrival changes everything. Much to the horror of her aunts, Rosa's far-sighted uncle insists that the child leave the living room into the sunlight. And, having shown a little courage and experienced many adventures with her mischievous but loving cousins, the Rose begins to bloom.
