The Adventures of Joel Pepper I JOEL AND THE SNAKE "Come on, Dave!" It was Joel's voice, and Polly pricked up her ears. "'Tisn't going to hurt you. Hoh! you're a 'fraid-cat--old 'fraid-cat!" "No, I'm not 'fraid-cat," declared little Davie, trying to speak stoutly; "I'm coming, Joel," and his little rusty shoes pattered unevenly down the rickety board walk. "Jo-el!" called Polly, thinking it quite time now to interfere. Joel scuttled behind the old woodshed, and several smothered grunts proclaimed his disapproval at the interruption. "Now I know you're up to some mischief," declared Polly, "so you just come into the house, Joel Pepper, and tell me what it is." "'Tisn't," said Joel, loudly insisting. "Don't go, Dave," in a loud whisper. Thereupon ensued a lively scuffle, evidently, by the noise they made. "I must," said little Davie; "Polly called us." "No, she didn't call you," declared Joel. "You stay here. She said 'Joel.'" "Bo-oys!" sang out Polly's voice, not to have any doubt in the matter.

"Joel Pepper!" cried Polly, in a tone that brought him bolt upright, his round face streaked with tears that his dirty little hands had tried to wipe off, the rest of them trailing over his round nose. "O dear me! Now you must go into the 'provision room' and stay. Don't you remember Mamsie said you'd have to go there the next time you wouldn't tell what you'd done?" And Polly looked as if she were going to cry at once. "Oh, no--no!" screamed Joel, in the greatest distress, and clutching Polly's arm. "I'll tell you, Polly; I'll tell." And he began to rattle off a lot of words, but Polly stopped him.

The Adventures of Joel Pepper is the fifth book in Margaret Sidney’s popular children’s story series entitled Five Little Peppers. Just like the first volume entitled Five Little Peppers and How They Grew and the following four stories, each of which focuses on one member of the Pepper family, this book also tells the adventures of the Pepper family consisting of Mamsie, a widowed mother and her five children, while focusing on one member especially, the wild and unruly boy named Joel.The plot of The Adventures of Joel Pepper takes place five years after the story of the first book ends. In these five years, Mamsie has been working as the housekeeper of a wealthy gentleman who treats the family as his own. The Peppers live on the mansion of Mamsie’s employer and the reader finds out not only about their living circumstances, but about the interests and the adventures of the children, too. Joel is thirteen at the beginning of the story and he is the same impulsive boy as he was in the first story. His attitude and his passionate disposition makes life significantly more difficult for him that it is for his siblings, but it is exactly this attitude that keeps the story going, animating the entire household.The Adventures of Joel Pepper was first published in 1900. The author decided to end the series with the fourth book entitled The Stories Polly Pepper Told, she even stated so in the preface to the book, but then so many fans of the series expressed their disappointment with the author’s decision that she decided to continue the family saga. Six more Pepper novels followed the book about Joel’s adventures, the series enjoying continued success. The last novel was published in 1916, when the author was 68 years old.

Margaret Sidney was an American author best known for writing the classic Five Little Peppers series. Sidney wrote a total of twelve books on the lives of the five children born into poverty in a little brown house. The Adventures of Joel Pepper is the sixth book in the series. The book details the adventures of the mischievous middle child of the Pepper family.
