The Corner House Girls

She had the raisins to stone, and the smallest Kenway was climbing up to put the package of raisins back upon the cupboard shelf.There was going to be a cake for the morrow. Ruth was a-flour to her elbows, and Aggie was stirring the eggs till the beater was just "a-whiz."Crash! Bang! Over went the chair; down came Dot; and the raisins scattered show more far and wide over the freshly scrubbed linoleum.Fortunately the little busy-body was not hurt. "What did I tell you?" demanded the raisin-seeder, after Ruth had made sure there were no broken bones, and only a "skinned" place on Dot's wrist. "What did I tell you? You are such a careless child!" show less

I read TCHG Solve A Mystery and enjoyed it so much that I started the series from the beginning. Apart from some words that are now considered racist I'm not sure what is racist in this book. The very fastidious German woman? The fruit selling Italian with a large family? The kind blue collar Black family?
