About this book

A fortnight of freedom begins when the Eddy boys finish the hay harvest and their father gives each of them five dollars. Fourteen-year-old Nathan, known as Old Tilly, and twelve-year-old twins Jot and Kent decide to celebrate on bicycles. Their plan turns a holiday into a game of modern knighthood: they will ride wherever the road takes them, look for people in trouble, and seek adventures. Annie Hamilton Donnell builds this children's story around their eager arguments, teasing, and shared excitement.

The New England countryside gives their outing a quieter side. After attending a Sunday service, the boys find lodging with an elderly couple whose welcome carries memories of their own three boys. Farm work, family affection, and Christian kindness shape the encounters. Readers can enjoy the lively conversation while seeing how the wish for adventure meets other people's needs and sorrows.
