Laura Lee Hope
1913
A fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a close-knit group of four friends—Betty, Grace, Mollie, and Amy—as they come together to form a Camping and Tramping Club, seeking adventure and outdoor fun after finishing school for the summer. At the start of the story, we are introduced to the four girls as they stroll down a picturesque street, brimming with excitement about their upcoming trip. The narrative reveals their distinct personalities: Betty is the confident leader, Grace the beauty conscious of her appearance, Mollie with her fiery temperament, and Amy who is more timid and sweet-natured. This dynamic is heightened when they discover a mysterious five hundred dollar bill attached to a note suggesting its owner's desperation. While planning their expedition, the girls navigate typical adolescent concerns, friend dynamics, and budding romantic interests, setting the stage for their summer adventures ahead. The opening establishes an engaging blend of friendship, mystery, and youthful exploration that sets the tone for the rest of the novel.
