So George she was. She woreher curly hair cut short, and her bright blue eyes gleamed angrily now as she cametowards Anne.'Anne! I've just had a letter from home - and what do you think? Father wants to go andlive on my island to do some special work - and he wants to build a sort of tower orsomething in the castle yard!' The other girls looked up in amusement, and Anne heldout her hand for the letter that George was waving at her. Everyone knew about the littleisland off Kirrin Bay that belonged to George. Kirrin Island was a tiny place with an oldruined castle in the middle of it: the home of rabbits and gulls and jackdaws.It had underground dungeons, in which George and her cousins had had one or twoamazing adventures. It had once belonged to George's mother, and she had given it toGeorge - and George was very fierce where her precious Kirrin Island was concerned! Itwas hers. Nobody else must live there, or even land there without her permission.And now, dear me, here was her father proposing to go to her island, and even buildsome sort of workshop there! George was red with exasperation.'It's just like grown-ups; they go and give you things, and then act as though the thingswere theirs all the time.

Where are you?’‘Here, dear, here, helping Joan with the dusting,’ said Mrs Kirrin, appearing out of a bedroom. ‘Don’t shout like that. I’m not deaf, you know. What’s the matter?’‘I’ve a letter here from that old friend of mine, Professor Hayling,’ said Mr Kirrin. ‘You remember him, don’t you?’‘Do you mean the man who came here to stay a few years ago, and kept forgetting to come in for meals?’ said Mrs Kirrin, flicking some dust off her husband’s coat.‘Fanny, don’t flick at me like that,’ said Mr Kirrin, crossly. ‘Anyone would think I was covered in dust. Listen - he’s coming to stay today for a week - instead of next week.’Mrs Kirrin stared at her husband in horror. ‘But he can’t do that!’ she said. ‘George is coming home today - and her three cousins with her, to stay.

Thankgoodness it's Saturday tomorrow.''Wuff,' said Scamper the spaniel. He loved Saturdays too. He knew he would havePeter and Janet all day long then.'Yes, you shall come to the meeting as well,' said Janet, patting his soft goldencoat. 'But do you know the password, Scamper?''Wuff-wuff!' said Scamper at once, and the children laughed.'Quite right — the password is "wuff-wuff",' said Peter. 'What a good memory youhave, Scamper!'Scamper wagged his tail, and said 'wuff-wuff' again. 'Better not say it too often,Scamper,' said Janet. 'Or that awful Susie might hear you.'Susie was Jack's sister, and not one of the Secret Seven, though she badly wantedto belong. She loved to find out whatever password the Secret Seven were using, andit really was quite difficult to stop her.Janet scribbled four cards — one to Colin, one to George, one to Pam and one toBarbara.

I think Cookie is baking today, so I'll go andtell her about the meeting, too!'Next morning Janet and Peter went down to their shed at a quarter to ten,carrying a good many things. 'I've tidied it up,' said Peter. 'Gardener had been in andtaken two of the big flower-pots we used as seats, but I found two boxes instead.'The shed-door had on it the two big letters S.S., standing for Secret Seven. Janetand Peter looked at them proudly.'Secret Seven!' said Janet. 'Best club in the world! I shall enjoy a meeting again —it's weeks since we had one — we've been so busy with school things.'In they went, and shut the door. Now no one would be allowed in unless they gavethe password. Peter set down the things he was carrying, and looked round proudly.'Didn't I clean the shed well?' he said. 'I even cleaned the windows. It's nice andwarm too, isn't it?'The shed backed on to the hot greenhouse....

Look, there’s the signal-box, and the signal is down. HURRAH!’Her three cousins looked at her in amusement. George was always like this on the way home from school.
