The newest house in Smithville is located on Naptown Avenue. It is a pretty pink Victorian
Mansion with a grey checkerboard roof. In this pretty house lives the Sewell family, and they
are the most recent new citizens of Smithville.
As you can see they are a rather serious looking lot. I don't know if it is because they have
to wear those tight Victorian garments, or if they just think they are richer and better than their
neighbors in Smithville. But I think they may have a lot of adjusting to do to come to terms with their
new lives.
Mother Sewell's name is Elizabeth, and she has moved to Smithville because she is a collector
of antiques, and has been hired to work in the local antique store. Her husband is Frederick. He really
is a bit of a snob. He is an actor and debater and he has moved here to teach at the drama school.
To his right stands their full time cook and maid. They are gourmet food lovers, and Claire is kept
busy keeping the family happy and the house in running order.
To the left of his mother is Freddy who was named after his father. Freddy is 10 years old
and dreads going to school at his new school, just like all new students everywhere!
Seated in the middle is his little sister , Beth, who was, of course, named after her mother.
Beth is just pretty much happy wherever they put her. She spends the day following Claire
around the house, and spreading her toys out all over the floor.
The best part of moving to Smithville, is their lovely new home. The worst part is, of course,
that they are stuck wearing those awful Victorian clothes. It is worse for Elizabeth and Claire
because they are wearing those Victorian corsets.And Freddy hates his
"nerdy" clothes because all the kids at school are going to tease him unmercifully. Sweet little
Beth simply doesn't care a whit. Her dress is loose, comfy, and, best of all, PINK!
