About this book
Telegrams bring the members of the Nowadays Club together as Sylvia Pursell prepares a summer holiday in the Adirondacks. Rose Bancroft arrives from Syracuse, eager to learn more about her friend's plans, and Alice Harrow joins their conversation over refreshments. With Hazel Reed also expected, the gathering introduces a group whose teasing remarks and shared interests give the story its social warmth. Sylvia has arranged for her aunt to accompany them, and dancing is among the pleasures they anticipate.
Outdoor adventure adds another kind of excitement to this children's novel by Gertrude Hall Brownell. A canoe overturns in a strong current, leaving the girls to reach the bank and investigate their boat's puzzling movements among the bushes. The scene combines practical concern with curiosity and lively dialogue. Readers can enjoy the friendships, holiday preparations and small uncertainties that turn an outing into an adventure.
