The Girls of Chequertrees
Marion St. John Webb
Leído por Winnifred Assmann
Pamela Heath, a pleasant 16-year-old girl living quietly at home with her parents and siblings, receives a peculiar invitation one day. An odd little old man delivers a letter from Emily Crabingway, her mother’s fourth cousin, who wants to know if Pamela will come and look after her house, Chequertrees, for 6 months while she is in Scotland on business. Three other girls will stay there with her. If they all comply with certain conditions (no visits to/from relatives; no letters, only one postcard a month; and stay out of the locked room on the first floor), they will each receive £50 at the end of their stay. Pamela decides to accept the invitation, and the rest of this delightful story is about her experiences at Chequertrees.

Reseñas
Nice old young adult fiction
Stella McQueen
A perfectly good story. Well read. Not especially predictable though I wished the idea was developed more deeply. I will seek more to listen to by both the author and the reader.
Lovely!
