About this book

Pages torn from schoolbooks turn an ordinary June morning at Massillon Academy into a test of honesty. Mr. Bernard calls on each pupil to answer on his honour, while Joe Chester carries knowledge that makes him visibly uneasy. When Joe confronts Ralph Drayton, a quarrel over the damaged books becomes a struggle between threats, loyalty and the demand to admit a wrong. This children's novel places questions of conduct inside the daily life of a school.

The island camping trip gives those questions a practical setting. Walter and Ned describe being trapped by the tide, and the boys' relief after their return leads Mr. Bernard to speak of gratitude and prayer. Elsewhere, Ben Carver packs worn clothes and fishing gear while Ralph voices anxiety about joining the camp. Readers of older school adventures will find outdoor mishaps set beside close attention to friendship, conscience and responsibility.
