Five Little Peppers Abroad I OVER THE OCEAN DEAR me," said Polly, "I don't see wherever she can be, Jasper. I've searched just every where for her." And she gave a little sigh, and pushed up the brown rings of hair under her sailor cap. " Don't worry, Polly," said Jasper, with a reassuring smile. " She's with Matilda, of course. Come, Polly, let's you and I have a try at the shuffle-board by ourselves, down on the lower deck." " No, we can't," said Polly, with a dreadful longing at her heart for the charms of a game; "that is, until we've found Phronsie." And she ran down the deck. " Perhaps she is in one of the library corners, though I thought I looked over them all." 9Table of Contents CONTENTS; CHAPTER PAGE; 1 Over the Ocean 9; IT Two English Friends 23; III Phronsie goes Visiting 40; IV Simmer Life 53; V A Fish Story and Other Things 67; VI A Little Surprise 78; VII Off for Holland 91; VIII "We will come again and stay a week" 104; IX A Box for the Pepper Boys , 123; X Danger 135; XI Thf Two Birthdays in Old Holland 150; XII The Henderson Box 171; XIII "The Cleanest Place in All Holland" 184; XIV The Island of ^Marken 197; XV Mr King does his Duty 209; XVI "Let us fly at those books" 223 XVTI Polly wrote a Nice Little Note 235 XVIII Bayreuth and Old Friknhs 251; 5; 6; CONTENTS; CHAPTER PAGE; XIX Mr King has a Little Plan for Polly 268; XX "I should make him happy/' said Phronste 2S4 XXL On the Rigj-Kulm 300; XXII Polly tries to help 31S; XXIII In the Shadow of the Matterhorn 334; XXIV The Round Robin 355; XXV On the Mer de Glace , 376 XXA'I "Well, here we are in Paris !" 402; XXVII "I've found him!" exclaimed Jasper 418; XXVIII "Well, I got him here," said the Little; Earl 433About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writing

"Perhaps she is in one of the library corners, though I thought I looked over them all." "How do you know she isn't with Matilda, Polly?" cried Jasper, racing after, to see Polly's little blue jacket whisking ahead of him up the companion-way. "Because"—Polly stopped at the top and looked over her shoulder at him—"Matilda's in her berth. She's awfully seasick. I was to stay with Phronsie, and now I've lost her!" And the brown head drooped, and Polly clasped her hands tightly together. "Oh, no, she can't be lost, Polly," said Jasper, cheerfully, as he bounded up the stairs and gained her side; "why, she couldn't be!"
