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

"Dear me," said Polly, "I don't see wherever she can be, Jasper. I've searched just everywhere 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." "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!"

Times are tough around the little brown house! The widowed Mrs. Pepper sews all day long just to earn enough to pay the rent and to feed the five growing Peppers. But she faces poverty and trouble with a stout heart, a smiling face, and the help of her jolly brood: blue-eyed Ben, the eldest and the man of the house at the age of 11; pretty Polly, so eager to cook for the family and make everyone happy and comfortable; and the three littlest Peppers, Joel, Davie, and baby Phronsie. A favorite of children, parents, and teachers for generations, this heartwarming classic first appeared in 1880. Since then, it has inspired countless young imaginations with its tender tales in which courage and good cheer overcome adversity.

Play script dramatized by Rosemary G. Musil, from the book of Margaret Sidney. Highly amusing comedy. Two sets. Modern costumes. Cast of 3 women, 2 men, 9 children.Retaining the full flavour, and all the well-remembered incidents of the original story, Rosemary Musil has given this play a sense of humour which is not only modern, but also perennial. The five Pepper children at home are always getting into mischief, and having to be helped out of it by Grandma Bascomb. But when they join forces with the wealthy Whitney children, the fun is intensified, for the Whitneys are of a mischievous turn themselves. The play illustrates the good American tenet that poor with ambition may better themselves, and that rich people recognize an obligation to help others. Modern children will love the Peppers just as their grandparents did.
