Nellie Oleson Meets Laura Ingalls (Little House) by Heather Williams
Not very deep, but cute enough. I think the very best audience would be a non-secular home-schooling family.

Nellie Oleson does not like the dusty, dirty life in Walnut Grove. She is happy that her father owns a store and she can have anything that she wants - candy, dolls and fancy dresses.

Nellie doesn't understand that being pretty and having things aren't the reasons a girl can be popular.
