The Merriweather Girls and the Mystery of the Queen's Fan by Lizette M. Edholm

"The Merriweather Girls and the Mystery of the Queen's Fan" by Lizette M. Edholm is a children's novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story features a group of young girls, led by Bet Baxter, as they embark on adventures and solve mysteries, culminating in encounters with a historical artifact—a fan believed to have belonged to a queen.

The opening of the book introduces the characters of Bet, Joy, Shirley, and a newcomer named Kit Patten, who has recently moved from Arizona and is feeling homesick.
