About this book

At teatime in the nursery, a servant bursts in to ask whether Master Peterkin is there, and the children learn that the boy, sent home ahead of his mamma half an hour earlier, has not arrived. Mrs. Molesworth tells the story in the voice of a child in the household, in twelve chapters running from What Can Have Become of Him to No Mystery after All. It was published in 1902 with illustrations by H. R. Millar, and is dedicated to Alexander Dobree Herries.
