In book two, it's the start of the Easter Term and the twins are looking forward to meeting all their friends at St Clare's once more. They are determined to be obedient and studious, but the new girls prove to be so much fun. Poor Mam'zelle had better watch out. Expect mischief at St Clare's!

Thoughts

Our twins are back at their boarding school and this time joined by a family member - grumpy cousin Alison. This is a bit of a trope for Enid Blyton, in which the family member comes along to be similar to how our protagonists started last year. She needs to learn all the same lessons that we have already learned. But meanwhile, it was very interesting the tricks that were played, the fire and the heroine. How mean an entire class can be when someone doesn’t quite conform to their standards. I wonder what mischief everyone’s going to get up to next!
