Special Instructions: A quick, fun solve I hope -- and also a birthday present for my daughter Madeleine who enjoys solving minis with me now and then. (Contains one clue repeated from a previous puzzle because I know she'll like it.)

Setter

Update: Madeleine solved this puzzle with just a few hints from the setter and enthusiastic support from her sister. Verdict: it was "kinda fun" 🏆 HBD : )
