Polly has lost track of little Phronsie, whom she was supposed to be watching -- and now she and Jasper run into old Mr. Selwyn in the library of the steamer ship bound overseas to England. He seems very ill! And who is this boy who seems so cruel to the sick old man? And what about this stuck-up girl Fanny Vanderburgh, who thinks the old man is much too common? People come all shapes and sizes -- and the Five Little Peppers meet every sort imaginable, while finding adventures, new friends, and even a few dangers. And how delighted they will be, seeing how things turn out -- almost topsy-turvy, for the odd little group that includes the oh-so-common Mr. Selwyn and those haughtily proud Vanderburghs!
Autorenporträt
Harriett Lothrop (June 22, 1844 - August 2, 1924) was an American author who also went by the pen name Margaret Sidney. She ran her husband Daniel Lothrop's publishing company following his death, in addition to producing popular children's novels. They worked hard after purchasing The Wayside country house to make it a hub of literary activity. Harriett Mulford Stone was born in 1844 in New Haven, Connecticut. She was "brought up in an atmosphere of culture and learning enhanced by free access to her father's large library," according to her father, New Haven architect Sidney Mason Stone. She attended nearby seminaries and graduated from Miss Dutton's School at Grove Hall in New Haven in 1862.
