Synopsis
The Corner House Girls Among the Gypsies begins with a playful but
troublesome moment: Sammy Pinkney, full of determination and mischief, insists
on entering the garage astride a broomstick, shouting the classic clown call,
“Here we are again!” This single act of pretend circus play becomes the spark
that leads the Corner House girls into an unexpected adventure—one they never
imagined when the day began. Even Dot, the youngest and usually the most
forgiving of Sammy’s antics, eventually admits that this time his behavior
truly set the chain of events into motion.
Tess, the second of the Corner House sisters, often
shares the cautious and practical attitude of her older sister, Ruth. She is
quick to point out that the entire incident involving the Gypsies would never
have occurred if Sammy had not insisted on playing the “joey”—a clown in circus
language. Their playful argument reveals the lively dynamic among the children
and sets the stage for the unfolding mystery.
What begins as innocent pretend play turns into a
real-life adventure when the girls find themselves entangled with a group of
traveling Gypsies. The encounter brings excitement, confusion, and a touch of
danger, as the children navigate unexpected situations, solve small mysteries,
and rely on their wits and courage. Through misunderstandings, discoveries, and
surprising events, the Corner House girls learn the importance of friendship,
cooperation, and trust.
The novel blends warm family relationships with
charming humor and mystery, capturing the spirited, imaginative world of
childhood while offering readers an engaging and wholesome adventure.
